Drag shows have been going on for over 100 years. Drag brunches have been going on as long as brunch has. I went to a famous one in New York like 15 years ago and it was hilarious. They weren’t naked or even scantily clad. They sang and told stand up comedy basically. Walked around and made fun of people at the tables.


How gay of a feller are you?

She also was very outspoken and supportive about wanting the BLM and Antifa shitwads to wreak havoc in other communities. Someone should start posting Trump signs around her restaurant and let those lovey organizations know how much Del Porto supports Trump 24.

Tell them I sent you. You might get a lap dance from a drag queen.

100? Try thousands.

The traditional drag act is a staple of the theater and comedy.






The point of the drag act is that it's FUNNY. Everyone knows it's not a woman. No one actually thinks putting a dress and a wig on makes a man a woman. That's what makes it so silly.



These blatantly vulgar and sexual drag queen strip shows are another animal altogether

Del Porto

“Not surprisingly, people have forgotten about this.”

It sucks how easily it was forgotten. The BLMer owns the Greyhound on Boston, as well. As of now, she hasn’t called to “burn it down.” Hypocritical skank.

I didn’t see anyone strip. Different animal for sure, but I dont think those are the majority. Granted I’m not too plugged into the scene

One update for this - the FBI looking into alleged threats.


Yet they completely ignore actual acts of violence and vandalism by pro-abortion terrorists against Catholic churches and crisis pregnancy centers.

I don’t understand why people care about drag brunches or anything like that if kids aren’t allowed.

Were children allowed to this?


You should find out the answer to your question before making that statement.

You went to a drag show in New Roads?

Which Jarreau was performing? Honestly it probably was hilarious. Don't really have a problem with it. I just think the owner is blaming this "backlash" for a restaurant that failed to catch on.

Its burlesque. Dudes get dragged there by their women.

I have nothing against drag, but I sure am not in a hurry to watch a clownish burlesque show particularly with a meal.
