Calling All Nebraskans: Please Send Us Pictures of Grade A Prime Nebraskan Man-Beef On Pride Floats No offense to Baltimore, Denver, Providence, Fort Lauderdale or Pittsburgh, who are also ringing in the gay year this weekend, but we *really* want to see some shots from the Nebraska Pride celebrations. We promise we won't make fun of them. It's simply that Flickr and the official Nebraska Pride website are sorely lacking in past documentation of this event, and we yearn for more photographic evidence from this foreign land—including shots of Nebraska's finest, corn-fed, strapping blond lads, preferably with their shirts off and their chests glistening in the prairie sun.Interestingly, there seems to have been a war for the gay dollar in Nebraska between the competing Pride organizations in Lincoln and Omaha, with Omaha's Rainbow Celebrations apparently winning out. Beginning in 1985, Omaha has been hosting pride fests with crowds from around the region topping out over 6,000. And we are positive that there are at least a handful of extreme hotties who have opted to stay close to home rather than pursue dreams of modeling underwear in LA, and we really want some fucking pictures. We also want pictures of dykes on bikes, gays with pets, local Nebraskan drag queens and drunk, happy bears. Knowing that the Sword has not perhaps reached this rural audience yet, we beg of you. Please. If you have a friend anywhere near Omaha who you think might be going to this, email them. Tell them to email us. If they have a good dispatch to share, we might even pay them.
