Cohen's 'Bruno' Behind Gay Cage Match?
Crowds in Arkansas came for the lure of cage fighting and $1 beer, but police say what they got instead was men ripping each others' clothes off and kissing - a stunt suspected of being orchestrated by Sacha Baron Cohen of 'Borat' fame. (submitted by yips)

You just knew the rodeo scene from "Borat" was going to get a sequel.Arguably the funniest scene in "Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan" was one in which Borat (Sacha Baron Cohen) was invited to sing the National Anthem at a rodeo in Salem, Virginia. At the rodeo Borat confronted Bobby Rowe, a Rodeo promoter from Dickson, Tennessee.
Rowe is seen advising Borat not to great men with a kiss, lest he be mistaken for a homosexual.
Fast forward 3 years and slide a few states south and west...
Crowds in Arkansas came for the lure of cage fighting and $1 beer, but police say what they got instead was men ripping each others' clothes off and kissing - a stunt suspected of being orchestrated by Sacha Baron Cohen of "Borat" fame.
This time around Cohen was filming his new movie "Bruno". Cohen's Bruno character is an entertainment reporter for Austrian Gay Television. The character is the perfect vehicle to expose homophobia and, apparently, an Arkansas cage fight is the perfect venue.
The crowd, expecting a night of caged brawling, were instead treated to a little male-on-male action.
An elaborate array of mounted and handheld video cameras caught the crowd of 1,600's reaction as the two men "went right up to the line" of the city's morality laws, Holland said. The two men stripped down to their underwear, kissed and rubbed on each other, the sergeant said.
The audience, as well as local fighters drawn to take part in the show, became enraged. "It set the crowd off lobbing beers," Holland said. "They had beers in plastic cups. Those things can get some distance on them actually."
There's little doubt this scene will be prominently featured next year when "Bruno" hits the big screen. There's also little doubt this scene will be hilarious.
