Sunny Side Of Mars: I've Got Camel Fever

Tribes Show Best Camels At Beauty Pageant

I think this is a beauty pageant men and women alike can get behind.

DUBAI (Reuters) - Ten golden-colored camels adorned with sparkling ornaments line up for the finale of a beauty contest in one of the UAE's northern emirates, awaiting the selection of two proud winners.

So gorgeous. Makes my dick hard

Gulf Arabs from across the region gather in a large sandy plot in Ajman to sit in for a four-hour competition, which will see the selection of the best out of 150 camels every day.

Large sandy plot you say. The over under of large sandy plots in United Arab Emirates is 7,000. The plot in Ajman had to be pretty special to hold such a prestigious contest.

The three-day spectacle should end with the top two finalists bagging luxury cars, while a remaining eight win cash.

So the prizes aren't for the camels, are they?

In an effort to preserve the Gulf Arab country's cultural legacy, the government encourages camel rearing through funding and festivals where the desert animal is paraded for beauty, and sold in auctions.

Beautiful. Simply beautiful. Makes my cock hard.

"The UAE's heritage is linked to camels and this festival emphasizes this. Traditions and customs lie in maintaining our history," said Saeed al-Aameri, who owns a large camel farm and is a participant in the pageant.

I guess its good to be proud of your history. We have the story of George Washington and not chopping down the cherry tree and the War of Independence. They have camels. Advantage: Push.

The camels are judged on different criteria, depending on the breed. The body is divided into five sections, with 20 points each, to mark beauty and elegance.

Great legs. Makes my rod hard.

After the prettiest camels are selected, based on the length of neck, curve of the humps, structure of the body, height and general appearance, the camels' owners are sworn in to vouch for purity of lineage and proprietorship.

Luscious lips. All I want to do is masturbate right now

"I swear that this camel is local, not hybrid...a pure breed and is fully owned by me," said one of the finalists, standing beside his camel.

You lie! You cantankerous whore! Wait...what?

At the auction, after the pageant, Gulf Arabs gather to place their bids or sell for the highest price on offer.

Where you can buy a camel for $700 bucks.

I must buy you and keep you as my concubine.

Some camels could be sold for as much as 16 million dirhams ($4.36 million), said one participant.

Oh my dear fucking shit stained pillow cushion. Damn boo.

The festival takes place three times a year in Ajman and Abu Dhabi, said the event's executive director, Shalal Rzooqi al-Shimri, adding the event was popular in countries including Oman, the UAE and Qatar.
