Barack Obama Riding A Tiger

Instead of the jokes round on Monday 15th Feb, we decided to have a ‘who can draw a picture of Barack Obama riding a tiger the best’ competition. With the rise of cheating on iphones – this could be the future of Edinburgh pub quizzes!

Here’s some of the work that got handed in:

The first is a jolly, stoned-looking Obama:

This Obama was quite boyish and we liked the addition of foliage:

My personal favourite was this one which has Barack Obama looking like one of the Bash Street Kids, riding on some kind of nuclear-power Sabre-toothed tiger:

See the PTO? that meants you turn over the bit of paper and the rear view of the same tiger (complete with arsehole) is shown. Smart stuff. I forgot to photograph the rear view – dumb stuff.

This was the winning team on the drawing who, despite being called Quiz Team Aguilera, seemed to be pretty decent people:
