Warning: This is probably one of the most bizarre but strangely hilarious Kickstarter projects ever.
The Big-Ass Amazingly Awesome Homosexual Sheep aka BAAAHS is a giant mobile sheep that is part vehicle, “part penetrable sculpture, part socio-political statement, and part gay disco.” The 40-foot vehicle will contain a den, “a large sound system and a DJ platform.” Meanwhile the outside will look like the fluffy grazer with one entrance – the rear.
The project, which is seeking funding on Kickstarter through May 31st, was set up by a group of gays headed to Burningman where they hope to debut the sheep. But the project isn’t strictly for Burningman, the group hopes to bring the sculpture to other queer events around the nation, sharing the wealth with backers and onlookers.
The guys behind the project are a group of artists, engineers, architects, designers, and bears with two things in common: they are all queer and long-time burners.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.

…”the outside will look like the fluffy grazer with one entrance – the ear.”
Those ears are pretty high for climbing into…

It’s actually the REAR. Only entrance is through the rear. His backend is where your journey begins.

Give us money so we can decorate our bus to drive into the middle of the desert to take drugs and have bareback sex in the great outdoors. Charming. Wonderful priorities.

@QJ201: it’s actually the opposite. many of us working on this project are sober and wanted a way to contributed and interact with the burning man community at large in a unique way. also the goal is not to create a rolling bathhouse. this vehicle is a rolling disco that will provide us an opportunity to give the gift of music and dancing. we are also hoping this vehicle will have a life after burning man and will provide sound at queer events.

@Aaron: You tell ’em, Aaron! Rooting for you guys to make it happen.
