The Thailand Military Draft Lottery Is Absolutely ELECTRIC — Draw Red and Serve a Mandatory 2 Years, Draw Black and You're Off Scot-Free

Put this on television in the United States immediately. I had never heard of this practice before today, but this has to be the most electric state-sanctioned event in the world. If this isn't broadcast throughout Thailand, I don't know what the hell they're doing over there.

Look at the damn production value you're getting from not only the potential conscripts, but the announcer, too. He gave a solid 10-count before he made that announcement because he has a feel for the moment and recognized this one needed to have some drama. They can't all be like that, but a guy who recognizes which ones deserve that level of spectacle is exactly who we need as the Ryan Seacrest of Thai Military Roulette.

And I'm not quite sure why our contestant in this video decided to celebrate his win by giving himself a concussion, but that's the beauty of this unscripted show: you never know what is going to happen next.

Most reality shows are played out at this point. Oh, the contestants are going to show up at a beach and some of them might have sex with each other? No thanks. Give me Thai Military Roulette seven days a week and I will not miss an episode.
