14. That top photo of Garcia handing off the sash to the officer really sticks sideways in my mind, rabs

It looks too damned tacky, after all, doesn't it?

The fact he had all those people on hand to witness handing over the sash to a military man to give to someone else to give to Humala is just too 2nd rate.

Therefore, in the unlikely event this situation could EVER come up again, in which a creepy head of Peruvian state fears what would happen to him/her if he/she showed up in person to pass on the sash appropriately to the next head of state, it could at least have entertainment value by using a person in the costume of a famous indigenous critter, a llama to do the honors, and take the sash to deliver to the next guy!
