To Wong Foo, Thanks For The Cage-Fighting Lessons

It’s always great when the universe appears to have a sense of humour, and the latest edition in “It’s funny ’cause it’s not me” central comes courtesy of two drunken hooligans from Swansea in the UK, who thought they’d have a go at some “drag queens” on a night out.

Unfortunately for the pair, their targets turned out to be cage fighters wearing fancy dress while on a buck’s night.

From the Daily Mail:

Dean Gardener, 19, and Jason Fender, 22, singled out the two men walking along a street in wigs, short skirts and high heels.

Bare-chested Gardener was caught on CCTV confronting one of the men in a pink wig, black skirt and boob tube – then seen swinging a punch, a court heard.

But the other cage fighter, wearing a sparkling black dress and matching long wig, sprang to his friend’s help, delivering two lightning-quick punches to the two stunned yobs.

The cage fighters were then seen teetering away in their high heels, stopping only to pick up a clutch bag they dropped during the melee.

Brilliant! The best part – apart from, you know, belligerent homophobes getting what for (and thanks to the magic of CCTV, our being able to revel in the moment again and again – watch him stumble face-first into a wall!) – is that the cage fighters remained ‘in character’ after KO-ing Gardener and Fender and retrieved their accessories from the puddle of idiots before strutting away.

RuPaul would be proud!
