Remember racehorse doping and greyhounds on steroids?
Well it seems beauty pageants are no longer immune to cheating.
We are used to Miss World, Miss Universe and their ilk but in Saudi Arabia they do not parade their women like that. Not wanting to miss out on beauty contests altogether, they have since 2000, held the annual camel beauty pageant. The festival also includes camel racing and camel milk tasting.
I guess it would be difficult to put a wife or five, or a daughter or a dozen, up for a beauty contest since they would all be wearing the same black sheet and pillow case emsemble. The bikini parade would be a tad difficult to judge under those circumstances.
Instead they enter their other prized possessions – their camels. Thousands of camels are paraded at the King Abdulaziz Camel Festival to be judged on their shapely lips and humps. You can hear the leacherous remarks “Nice pair of humps on her! Phooaaarrrrr”
The prize money totals a massive 40 million squids. That’s a lot of dosh for a smelly camel. With that kind of money on the line, the cheating A-rabs have been giving botox injections to inflate the lips, nose and jaws of their beasts. This year twelve camels were banned by the judges for cheating.
What next DD hump jobs for camels?
