Title: Borat strikes in Kuwait
Post by: charlesoakwood on December 01, 2012, 08:28:47 PM
Borat ... anthem played during a medal ceremony at 10th Arab Shooting Competition in Kuwait (http://www.bellenews.com/2012/03/23/world/middle-east-news/borat-spoof-anthem-played-during-a-medal-ceremony-at-10th-arab-shooting-competition-in-kuwait/)

The team’s coach told Kazakh media the organizers had downloaded the parody from the internet by mistake.

The song was produced by British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen for Borat movie, which shows Kazakhs as backward and bigoted.

Footage of Thursday’s original ceremony posted [at link and] on YouTube shows gold medalist Maria Dmitrienko listening to the anthem without emotion and finally smiling as it ends.

Didn't this happen a long time ago?  I seem to remember this like 8 months ago.

I don't know.  It was just so third world. No, it was worse than third world this bozo crew setting up their national anthem download Borat's joke on them.  It's so exemplary of the depth and breadth of their ineptitude and ignorance.
It's so Borat.
