Last week local gigolo “Magic Mark” Desantos thought he was attending the annual Gigolo Convention, an orgy tradeshow showcasing the who’s who of sex workers and newest sex toys. What Desantos hoped would be a weekend for fellow gigolos and escorts like himself, was actually a 3-day long festival for the large yet tight-knit community of Juggalos in the Midwest (Juggalos being the face-painted, hatchet-wielding, die-hard fans of the horrorcore rap/rock band Insane Clown Posse). The Gathering is notorious for its alligator duels, naked swamp wrestling, raucous concerts and surprise guest appearances by celebrities like Gary Busey, Haylie Duff, Dave Coulier, Andrew Dice Clay and Coolio.
