TIL That Sheep fighting is an illegal sport in Algeria where two sheep fight. There is no gambling on the fights, but the loser is sentenced to slaughter while the winner has its value increased. The sheep are given names that inspire fear, like Hitler, Ebola or Lawyer.

“What’s the difference?” I always say.
Lawyer? (Shudders)
>TIL That Sheep fighting is an illegal sport… where two sheep fight.
That’s a bit redundant.
I hear popularity of Putin sheep is on the rise.
If they really wanted to instill fear they’d name the sheep something like
“committed monogamous relationship”
Or
“Unexpected call from that client you hate”
Good to see that they don’t let something like gambling tarnish the good reputation of Nazi sheep death fights.
