Oh, Manchester, So Much To Answer For

I just saw something completely jaw-dropping on espn. they're rerunning "brian boitano's skating spectacular 2001," which my roomie's watching. he called me in to see vladamir besedin & oleksiy polishchuk, billed as "acrobatic champions on ice." apparently, at least besedin is straight, which I find utterly amazing, because here's what I saw: 2 men wearing pvc hazmat bib overalls and rubber t-shirts doing lots and lots of homoerotic dance/acrobatic/skating moves whilst thumping germanic techno was playing. a couple of times during their routine, I really thought they were going to kiss. and besedin is fine as hell, in case you're wondering. just downright bizarre.
