The Nine Emperor Gods Festival Oct 30, 2007 at 04:52
"All the other dudes were doing it, it just seemed like a good idea at the time". I mean c'mon we have to give up sex, alcohol and meat for fucking 9 days. Tell me you wouldn't be shoving metre long shovels through your face either."
- participant at the The Nine Emperor Gods Festival in Phuket.

Well not really but you could imagine it going something along those lines. Check out this gallery of images (not recommended for the queezy) of what the local Chinese community in Phuket get up to at this time of year. Crazy shit.

i used to see the same thing every year when in lived in Malaysia. It was pretty gnarly, the dudes also had hooks being pulled outta their backs or something like that and we got free food and stuff. It was also pretty commercialised, like every company had a stall at the venue where they'd give their employees free shit. Was there anything like that when you when in Phuket? Sick piccy too man, props for getting in there and taking the picture so close to his face .haha
