Wilderness What Is the Matter With You, Connecticut?

Posted by Jen Graves on Wed, Aug 3, 2011 at 1:27 PM

This is the worst mariachi music I have ever heard. Also, the whale poops at 1:05.

Not gonna lie, I watched it for the poop.

That was Balluga TOTALLY rocking out.

That whale was saying "Kill me, kill me NOW!!"

Oh, come on, that whale was loving it, even nodding to the beat. He was very interested. He could have swam away, but he didn't. It tickled him so much he literally shit his pants!

@Conrad - That band was pretty cool, but the America tourists were a disgrace.
I actually like Mariachi music. Makes me hungry!

If the poop was not mentioned, I don't think I would have bothered to watch it. I've never seen a Beluga whale poop before, and think I will never see it again. Thanks!

wtf? What aquarium director says, "Our whale looks bored. Let's hire a mariachi band."

and as for the poop... I have shit myself only once because I loved a piece of live music so much. However, I have shit myself about 7 times because the music was so bad. I think the whale is with me on this one.

I think the Baluga liked it. It was pressing it's dome against the glass at the end. And since this is probably the only mariachi band the whale has heard, it probably doesn't care how good they are.

@9,

Sitar music has the same effect on me.

@12,

The water's undoubtedly muffling the sound a bit too.

I just watched a minute and 6 seconds of this entirely out of curiosity as to where a beluga whale's asshole is. Now I know.

Maybe the whale was hoping for a little Simon and Garfunkel instead?

The band was there to play a wedding. The best part? The ceremony was held in front of the whale too, and the whale watched the whole thing from behind the couple. The band played for the whale while the guests were having dinner.
