Two cage-fighting events dubbed "Blue Collar Brawlin'" held in Arkansas in early June, 2008, are suspected to have been stunts staged by the producers behind the 2009 Sacha Baron Cohen film Bruno. During the fights, two of the caged fighters began kissing each other and tearing off each other's clothes, resulting in members of the audience hurling beers and chairs at the cage.Associated Press: Fake Ark.

Bruno's Trip to Arkansas
While the character of Bruno did apparently not appear at the fights, Cohen has visited Arkansas before in the guise of the flamboyantly gay German television personality. During one of the segments for Da Ali G Show, Bruno visited an Arkansas gun show.YouTube: Arkansas Gun Show (Time: 1:33)-
