Tac & Wayne to take over for Siegfried & Roy in Las Vegas
Tac & Wayne were personally selected by Las Vegas magicians Siegfried & Roy to temporarily replace them while Roy continues to recuperate from a tiger attack that left Roy near death.
The famous duo took a liking to the Playaz when Roy met Wayne on a cruise ship and discovered that Wayne was smuggling a cheetah on board, just as Roy had done almost 50 years ago when he met Siegfried. Wayne explained that he and Tac were amateur magicians who preferred to work with exotic jungle cats, and determined they would be the perfect replacements.
Another similarity between the pair was that 5 years ago, Tac nearly lost his arm when a white lion was "helping" Tac by chewing through sinew and bone when Tac had accidentally tripped on a wire on stage.
Tac demanded from Siegfied & Roy a silver Trans Am before he would agree to sign on.

You men certainly have good taste in cars.

Wayne is hot. I don't know how I didn't notice before.

Those gold chains are hot. ROWR!

By silver Trans Am, you mean literally made of silver, right? Otherwise you got a bum deal...
Posted by: DC_Cookie at December 7, 2005 12:15 PM
Does this mean Wayne and Tac are also closet homosexuals?
Posted by: DC_Cookie at December 7, 2005 12:16 PM
Kathryn - Wayne is quite popular with the ladies (but then again, what Playa isn't?). And Tac could sweep you off your feet on the dance floor.
Cook - Are Siegrfried & Roy still considered to be "in the closet"?
No, Tac & Wayne merely have a love for magic with jungle cats, certainly not each other. But they do love a tiger-striped tuxedo jacket.
And yes, we are talking a pure silver T/A (gold has been done before)

Are all the Playaz married? I think we need to have y'all bused up here for a mixer if not.
Posted by: Kathryn at December 7, 2005 1:42 PM
Believe it or not, all Playaz are spoken for.
However, our ladies realize the realities of our celebrity and the demands upon us to please our female fans.
Posted by: Phil at December 7, 2005 2:49 PM
Wayne and Tac have also been known to dabble in black magic. I am sure they will be putting on some type of magic show at The Playaz Christmas Party this year. Only ten more days to go until the big annual event, which is of course being hosted by the Guvna this year.
Posted by: Bon at December 7, 2005 8:13 PM
Good point, Bon. I have heard that they will incorporate a bit more evil into their act than S & R did.
Posted by: Phil at December 7, 2005 9:26 PM
Although all the playaz are indeed taken - it should be noted as in the previous post regarding women out to snag a playa, that there are costly sacrifices to being a playa...

Ok, you have to put this pic on a shirt.
I am devastated that all the Playaz are taken! I'm going to go sob into my coffee now!
Sniff.

I think it's only fair for the DC blog community to request - nay, to DEMAND - full documentation of the Playaz Christmas Party. You've seen all our happy hour shizz, pony up, yo.
Posted by: Kathryn at December 8, 2005 2:32 PM
Kathryn...please. Who do you think you're talking to?
You have no idea what is about to hit you in the coming weeks.
The Playaz Christmas Party / DVD Release will be fully documented. This will occur Dec. 17th.
Prior to that?...We have other ideas in the spirit of the holidays that I think will be enjoyed by all. That's coming Monday.
Posted by: Phil at December 8, 2005 2:39 PM
Indeed Phil. We are about to blow their minds.
