Cage fight in Arkansas goes funny
When in Arkansas, be careful when reading the newspaper and deciding to take the wife and kids to a cage fighting match. Instead of barbaric no-rules boxing, you may be unwittingly part of Sasha Baron Cohen's next film, "Bruno".
Cohen was the mastermind behind Borat and Ali G, but with that recognizable face, he's running out of ways to deceive the public. Luckily, he's got one last character, a gay Austrian fashion news reporter, Bruno, who goes around America, pretending to be making a film about fashion, only to reveal prejudice and stereotypes.
According to the Globe & Mail, Cohen advertised a cage fighting match with $1 beer, only to have two wrestlers perform a homoerotic rub and slap exhibition, with lots of kissing.
Not what you had in mind for your night out, eh?
The moral of the story is: be wary of $1 beer.
Well, that's not true. I used to go to this old blues bar and have $1 beer all the time. It was awful, sure, but fitting for the blues. Perhaps a more fitting moral would be: don't always expect a cage fight when you're expecting a cage fight.

"The two men stripped down to their underwear, kissed and rubbed on each other, the sergeant said.
The audience, as well as local fighters drawn to take part in the show, became enraged. “It set the crowd off lobbing beers,” Holland said. “They had beers in plastic cups. Those things can get some distance on them actually.”"
