Sacha Baron Cohen Stages Gay Cage Fights

Sacha Baron Cohen, playing his new gay character Bruno for his new movie, lured thousands of people in Arkansas to caged fighting with an ad that was titled Blue Collar Brawlin, and offered $1 beer, hot chicks, and hardcore fights. The fights were staged at both Texarkana and Fort Smith on consecutive days.

The cage fighters didn’t exactly fight as expected. One of the fighters called himself Straight Dave who wore camouflage. Both opponents ripped each other’s clothes off, then once they were in their underwear, they began to kiss down their opponent’s chest.

The audience at Fort Smith got so upset they threw chairs and beer at the cage fighters, according to a cop who was there for security.

Cohen’s character Bruno is a gay Austrian journalist who interviews subjects about fashion and entertainment.
