Space for a tent traditionally allocated to the Batch of 73 Theravada Prelates will be used to store liquor instead as the monks have decided not to attend any of this year’s big matches to held over the coming month.
One organiser of a big match said, “These monks were regular attendees at the matches and were always having a good time. Some of them drank and smoked like they anyway do. We also gave them a band which played Pirith Papare so they could enjoy the event. But this year they seem to have got on their high horses and preaching morality while continuing to condone unethical behaviour within their own ranks.”
One of the monks said, “We take the fun out, and put the mental in Fundamentalism. We are not only against big matches but also cycle parades. They cause a lot of inconvenience and the way they treat the bicycles is appalling. We would support them having a perehera instead, led by mistreated elephants. Some of these boys jump into girl’s schools and cause mayhem. Our elephants won’t do that – mainly because their legs are chained together.”
A spokesman for the ICC said, “World Cup is okay noh?”
