So yesterday with the nearly 100 degree heat and me not wanting to venture out and die of dehydration, I decided to head to my moms air conditioned house to take a nap. About 4:30 I get a call from my friend Chris asking if I wanted to help out with the Desert Brawl event that was happening at 6:00, so me being the poor college student I am said yes. This night was definitely something to take in and not for good reasons. This is an event which is basically minor league UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship?), which puts to guys in a ring and have them beat the hell out of each other for a couple rounds. Along with this it has girls dress in the shortest skirts and lowest cut shirts to sell beer and walk into the ring holding a sign that lets all the retards in the crowd know what round it is, cause counting to 3 is becoming harder and harder. You also have girls that are just dressing in skanky ass shit also who aren't even trying to sell things, OK maybe their bodies.
While at the event selling overpriced drinks to anyone who would pay $2 for a bottle of water, Chris and I began to talk about everything that was wrong with the whole thing. The event was pushing violence, sex, and alcohol and yet everyone knew what they were going to see and I see kids that are no older than 8 or9 years old in this place, taking it all in and being taught that these types of behaviors are alright, them being two guys beating each other and guys whistling at the girls in the shorts skirts and sometimes just underwear. I just find this type of "competition" as something that needs to be left up to the wild and not be popularized by a nation that is being dumbed down.
Overall it was a good experience to see why people love to watch this stuff. I did end up making $55 which is always nice to have some extra cash in the pocket and got some free beers, more importantly good beer, Fat Tire to be exact.
