| #1 Ah, yes, the King of Swaziland. The MONEY QUOTE: Some 39 per cent of adult Swazis are infected with HIV/ Aids, the highest proportion in the world. King Mswati responded to the crisis in 2001 by banning virgins from having sex for five years. Any man caught deflowering a virgin would be fined one cow. This law proved too rigorous for the king. Months later, he chose a 17-year old bride and fined himself one cow. LMAO! This may not be an RB classic, but it is definitely a runner-up. |
