Donkey show
A donkey show is a semi-fictional form of sex-tourism entertainment in Tijuana, Mexico involving bestiality with a donkey.[1][2][3]
Taxi drivers in Tijuana, Mexico offer tourists a ride to see a donkey show in the red light district.[3][4] The shows are difficult to verify and may be urban legends, but anecdotal accounts are frequent.[5][6] Author Jim Dawson writes: "No doubt there are clandestine clubs that have put these sordid floorshows on display, but if every man who claims he actually saw one is telling the truth, there must be a lot of bowlegged women hobbling around Tijuana."[2]
More recently the term has been used to describe a situation that has become a "complete mess".[7]
History
Template:Disputed-section An early fictional account appeared in the 1984 film Bachelor Party with Tom Hanks. It had a quaalude-popping[8], cocaine-snorting donkey at the bachelor party ready to perform a donkey show, who dies of a drug overdose.[9] The next appearance is in the 2005 book The Godfather Returns written by Mark Winegardner. In the story Fredo Corleone's wife Deanna Dunn insists they attend one. The passage reads: "on a whim, they'd headed to Mexico. When they'd gotten there, Deanna Dunn, insisted on going to see a donkey show. ... who thought that watching a donkey fuck a teenage Indian girl was a hoot."[10] In the 2006 film Clerks II the character Randal Graves sets up a surprise going away party for Dante Hicks at Mooby's where he hires "Kinky Kelly and the Sexy Stud".[11] The reviewer Joel Siegel wrote that he was revolted by the scene in which the donkey show is discussed and walked out of the movie.[12] He said: "It was so foul and mean and repulsive. I finally realized I could not say anything positive ... I wasn't ready for this kind of smut ... I hope [director Kevin Smith] doesn't make any more movies."[13]

I can't fault Mr. Siegel for feeling 'revolted' (his producer's description of Joel's reaction) by our flick; in truth, there is a donkey show in it, and I recognize that brand of whimsy might not be for everybody. Film appreciation is very subjective, and maybe Joel just isn't into ass-to-mouth conversations.
