One day to go and we’re itching; and it’s not just the chronic hay fever: Melbourne Cup is here! The race that stops a nation, steeped in 150 years of history and the week-long affair where thousands of Australian racegoers let themselves and their country down with appalling trackside behaviour. Fear not, for we know how to make pedantry fun—that’s right—Bogan Spotto is back!
Just like a set of Encyclopædia Britannica, we have updated our official Bogan Spotto scorecard with a new moniker and additional items to make your tisking, tutting and head-shaking an even more competitive experience. Conveniently-sized to fit in your race book, use the office printer to make and distribute copies amongst your friends for the entire Carnival. Happy hunting!

Thanks Mr Hat, I will certainly be trying to win and tick off as many on the Bingo card. Is there an extra prizes if I am able to fill the entire card? Probably a better chance on Oaks Day, but who knows? Might “get lucky” on Day one of the carnival.

You’re most welcome, Captain. I imagine that you’d score better on Cup Day out of all of the days of the Carnival. Raise the stakes with your friends; perhaps a similar punishment as losing a game of pool?

Many I knew at the races commented on this being posted on my facebook, but I was the only one who actually printed up one and ticked them off as the day ( or flood) went along!
The order of Bogan Blotto. In order, I got to 12:
1.Boots w/dresses: 2. Whiteshoes/blackhat.: 3. Visible control undies; 4. bare feet: 5. champagne w/straw: 6. streaky suntan: 7. Blackhat color tie: 8. baseball hats: 9 Novelty ties10 Cowboy hat (looked like a deceased JR Ewing): 11. Collar o/s lapels and 12 a bit of biffo/punch-on. Notable sights/votes: The peanuts in suits deciding to mud wrestle was a extra vote of WTF, along with the amount of rat tails on blokes in suits. Even in the 80s,s this was a no- no.
Doubtful even in good weather for the carrot in fascinator, and did not mark off Public Kama Sutra for same sex bogans dry humping for no apparent reason (maybe to impress the opposite sex??
