"King Cobra"

 

5 of 12

"The King Cobra Club" For 10 baht (about 25 cents), we watched the ladies of the King Cobra Club dance holding snakes' heads in their mouths (below). No one could tell me the origins of the performance, but it makes economic sense, and sends chills through an uninitiated crowd.
