Maybe one of the ‘royals’ will be one of those QUETZALCOATL people.

Imagine being that straight guy that wins and has to stand next to the flamboyant gay guy that insists they should kiss for the yearbook photo.

All culture are equal.

Native cultures were peaceful and at one with each other and nature.

I wonder if they feel bad about their racially insensitive name?

How about a girl and a donkey? Tijuana anyone? Other iterations of that pairing also exist.

They likely will not play the Wyoming Cowboys until they change their name to Wyoming Cow Handlers.
