The King is dead! Long live the King!

Father Scott
It’s Do What You Feel Like Friday here at Pax Arcana for two reasons:

HALLOWEEN COLORING CONTEST
HEAR ARE THE WINNERS!
Here’s Lucy’s measured reaction:
Nothing short of genital electrocution will suffice.

Who the F is Danny Gans?

The view from Pax Arcana’s ludicrously oversized suite at the Rio includes the Palms Hotel, a whole buttload of casino construction projects, and one giant billboard featuring a toothy buttplug named Danny Gans.
