Drag Queen Gang Terrorizes South
(Birmingham, Alabama) When a queen goes to a gala she wants to arrive in style, and that say Birmingham police is what led a gang of marauding drag queens on a crime wave that targeted exclusive car dealerships in five southern states and Michigan.

Police tell 365Gay.com that as many as a dozen drag queens were members of the gang. They would descend on car dealerships, scope out the best of the best on the lots, and then steal them to drive to drag beauty pageants throughout the South.

About a dozen cars have been recovered but nearly 20 more are still unaccounted for. In one of the cars found by police near a gay club the trophies were still in the backseat.

"It was all about arriving in grand style at these pageants," Sgt B. A. Treadeway of the Birmingham Police Department told 365Gay.com.

12. That what I was thinking.
My favorite line was Wesley Snipes.

They were thinking about taking the bus instead of driving.

"Uh, uh honey. You got me confused with Miss Rosa Parks. Girlfriend don't ride the Hound."

They were completely justified. A girl MUST arrive in style.
