Olympic Opening Ceremony Getting Hairy

16 May


I haven’t confirmed if this gentleman is actually covered in man-fur, but that would make it so much better! Russell Mark, 48, a gold medalist shooter from Australia, is due to wear a Borat-style mankini at the London Olympic Opening Ceremony after losing a bet.
Mark lost the wager on an Aussie Rules football game, which is similar to rugby, which is like football without all the protective equipment. Mark said he must have been drunk at the time he placed the bet. Considering Australia’s reputation for drinking, that doesn’t surprise me.
72 more days until we get to play I spy the banana hammock when we watch the Opening Ceremony! Beat that, Beijing!
