Make Cincinnati Weird!

CityKin reminds us that the Cincinnati Drag Races are this weekend! Mentioned before, the Drag Races are a set of events culminating in a street race you won’t soon forget. From the website:

From the start line the first member from a team of 4 gets dressed in Dress, Wig, Handbag and Heels must be 2 inches high. Then runs one block to the exchange line, where they pass off the same items to the next team member who in return runs back down the course. The race is complete once all four team members have completed course. The start/finish line judges are Penny Tration, Grand Parade Marshal, Miss Mona Lott and a judge from Women Out Front. The exchange line will be judged by a board member of the Gay Chamber.

But the Drag Races isn’t just about the race! The whole weekend is packed with activities including the “Pumped!” kickoff party at Below Zero lounge, where you are encouraged to wear your most OUTrageous pumps.

Sunday events are being held in conjunction with Second Sundays on Main, and include “Drag Your Dog OUT” and Dykes On Bikes. The actual race starts around 4 pm.
