How could I pass on this?
CNN.com - Lawmaker wants tiny boxing gloves on roosters - Jan 26, 2005
I mean, tiny boxing gloves? Technically, boxing shoes. An Oklahoma senator is trying to revive cockfighting (banned in that state in 2005), which he calls a "$100-million business", by having the spurs on the roosters' legs replaced by the footies. But that's not all! He also wants to put the birds in electronic vests, to be used to keep score.

Why not just give them tiny light-beam guns and have them play Lazer Tag?

Oh God. I am going to have a stroke if I don't stop laughing.

I see a Pixar film coming from all this. "Cocky." The part where he swallows the raw egg might be problematic, though.
