Preparations are being finalized for the arrival of his holiness The Dalai Lama in Calgary for a once in a lifetime engagement at the Saddledome Sept. 30 – Oct. 1.
While many snotty rock stars and twitty pop acts have played the ‘Dome and requested outlandish, over-the-top items on their tour rider, none come close to that of the Lama. Our investigative journalists recently intercepted a fax containing the Lama’s request. Our favourites are as follows:
1- Free Tibet
1- leather mask with ball gag
1- adult diaper
4- 40 ounce Big Bear beers
1- suckling hog’s head from T&T Supermarket
2- buckets of Chicken on the Way chicken
1,000- Brown M&Ms
1- carton of Lucky Strikes
6- bottles of water chilled to exactly 5.3 degrees
1- assorted meat plate with bread that is big enough to hold the meat. The Lama doesn’t want to have to fold the bread because it will only be half size.
2- pans of oven fresh brownies, size 41/2- men’s
2- issues of Penthouse Forum
1- bottle of Jergins
1- box of Kleenex
5- minutes of zen
