      They came to the press conference two days later dressed the same, their captain also requested their uniformed presence at his birthday party later this year.

      You’ll need to bring your own meth, though.

      What, the one in red? Looks like pure confidence to me. The fella in gold is the one who looks like he doesn’t love his dress, like he got stuck with the one nobody else wanted.

      It’s was just the high heels that fatigued him out, it was a long few days of sampling pills & dancing non-stop.

    Maybe the economies are different in Thailand, but unless those meth pills were horse sized, I think these costumes, forget labor costs, far exceed the value thereof.

        In the end it’s not about the pills taken off the street, it’s about all the sexy dance “disguises” they had along the way.

          What we don’t see in this picture, however, are the big feathery headdresses that these guys were probably wearing, and I feel ripped off

            It really pulled the whole look together :(.

            Maybe the pics just aren’t free.

                Sorry, can’t, some mfs in huge wigs disguised as cops just stole by 53 pills!

                Wait, that’s them, on the TV, stop them!!
                (Was I drunk & stole their wigs to try to get my pills back? Can’t remember. … can’t remember if I always had all these wigs lying around.)

    If they’d visit the states, they could make a lot of money at the next CPAC.
