They’re probably full of testosterone an EPO too.
ha! apparently there’s more prize money in camel beauty pageants than triathlon, not surprised they would cheat. going to have to see if the double letter rule applies
Hello domingjm and All,
Camel Beauty Pageant … oxymoron
Phrases that come to mind … lipstick on a pig … polish a turd … perhaps loosen the rules and allow lipstick and false eyelashes?
Maybe … with electric vehicles and peak oil (demand) camels will rise again … more beautiful? and more important than ever.
Camel racing purses to $1M …
"But how much does a camel cost? Faisal says that a camel’s price starts from about $55,000 (£40,000) but thoroughbreds can go for a lot more. Back in 2010 an Emirati camel-racing fan spent £6.5m on three camels.
The prices of winning camels go even higher - from between $5-10m, but for some can fetch up to $30m. Faisal looked nonchalant when he was speaking about the prices, while I vainly try not to look shocked."
