Title: Soon to be Just Sigfried?
Post by: Mad Dr Jeffe on October 04, 2003, 08:42:31 AM: The Simpsons proved to prophetic as Roy Horn of the famous Sigfried and Roy team was attacked by a white tiger used in his act. The Tiger seized him by the throat and dragged him off stage like he was a rag doll.

Eventually the rat tries to get out by burrowing through the only soft thing availible.

Now the guy in New York was just a wife beater.
