Of course, it fits. And this horse shit about comparing a cultural tradition that doesn’t harm humans in any way to the actual harming of human beings really bespeaks of pure animal rights extremism. I haven’t noticed any particularly rough crowds at cockfights either, and there have always been lots of children present.
Here’s a (work safe) youtube link for eleanorigby…
Hee. 
You have to admit, it’d be more interesting than watching a rooster die.
I am a bit leery of that movie…ye gods-what is out there? (I’m not googling that, no way!).
I can see that the ergonomics of the fight would be hard (sorry) to accomodate, so perhaps appendages should be attached to the er, protusions. Lengthening the swords will enhance the play, no?
where is the laughing evilly smiley?
Yes! Add an element of danger to the contest–have the guys wear spurs! Think of the strafing of the shins that would go on–sure to draw blood, which would enhance the whole experience.
So, now you’ve got two guys, naked, but each wearing an Extend-a-Cock, ankles equipped with spurs. Perhaps a cowboy hat or similar…in a sandpit, with spotlighting and truck rally music. Beer is two-fer.
We would make millions!
:eek:
OK, that should be illegal, no question!
You need to throw in a Robot Wars component. Give the naked guys each a crowbar, and have big machines trying to crush them, saw them up, or otherwis kill them.
eleanorigby, I like your business plan… 
Around here the “sport” has been kind of in a state of lull for some time. Not much growth but not going away either. Haven’t beheld a cockfight in decades, but sat the time in the regulated environment of the legal cockfights the crowds were loud and rowdy but not “rough” in the sense of threatening.
Never saw what the damn point was anyway. Sometimes one slays the other in two seconds, sometimes they peck at each other what seems like forever, I was bored and the spectacle of the wounded birds is pathetic in the end. It’s not for me, and if it goes away that’s progress for ya – but ** no, I do not grant it moral equivalency to crimes against humans**. Sorry.
Still, wouldn’t you know, the reaction here at hearing that soon there’ll be no more legal-cockfight states and the feds will forbid interstate trade in gamecocks has been along the lines of *“See? Those Bad, Mean White Anglophones are attacking our culture, and anyway they’re more immoral, look at how they make so much money on [porn/violent movies/violent video games/guns], and George W Bush bombs people, this is why we should not be a state EVER…etc.”… * no, really, I wish I were kidding. :rolleyes:
This scenario takes place in the movie Night Patrol, a quite humorous farce.
