Siegfried minus Roy?
« on: October 04, 2003, 09:46:26 AM »
"LAS VEGAS - A trained tiger attacked magician Roy Horn of the duo Siegfried & Roy during a performance, biting his neck and dragging him off stage just feet from the audience. Horn's manager said Saturday the illusionist underwent surgery and was in critical condition."

You have to admit these two flamers are the best at what they do.  Sad thing to happen.

I never thought it wise to play with an animal that can eat you.

Those guys remind me of the "Hans & Franz" skits that were on SNL.

The Halloween episode had the classic line:

"Ya...I am Hanz und zis is Franz....and vee here to pump you up...und scare you".

I was lucky enough to see S&R at Merv Griffin's resort in the Bahamas in the early 90's and we sat at the front row of tables. I never realised just how menacing a tiger was, until it was a few feet away from me with a little gay dude the only thing preventing him from turning me into Tender Vittles.:eek:
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.
