Anderson Silva
blogs.chron.com/fighting
According to The Vancouver Sun, Anderson Silva was set to make an appearance at Popeye’s Supplements for a promotional autograph signing for his sponsor–Nutrabolics.
“Silva was stopped at the border, denied entry, and turned around for reasons unknown.”
A riot almost broke out at Popeye’s Supplements as the fans were given the news of the no show. A saving appearance by UFC lightweight contender, Kenny Florian saved the day from the disastrous situation.

Silva fans were extremely disappointed by the no show when they had to wait in the cold for hours to catch a glimpse of the anticipated Anderson Silva. However, some fans were more than satisfied with the presence of Kenny Florian.
“It’s awesome,” said Cassidy Okoie, a 21-year-old kickboxer, “It’s a dream come true.”
As awesome as it must be to get to meet Kenny Florian, hard-raged Silva fans get a second chance to meet the MMA super star.
“Disappointed fans of Silva will get a second chance to meet their hero when he appears for a do-over next week. He’ll sign autographs at Popeye’s Kitsilano, 2295 W. Broadway, on Monday, Dec. 8, from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m.”

Poor Anderson! He does not look like a threat to national/international secutity. What is with these guys? Edith Labelle, Jason MacDonald and now Anderson? What's up?

Maybe he was trying to smuggle Taz slippers into Canada.

You mean that's illegal?

Maybe he was bringing them in so he could sell them on the slipper black market. Many times, slippers are taken against their will and sold for cotton and other soft materials. The Taz slippers are fuzzy, and fuzzy materials are very valuable when it comes to soft materials. Who knows how many slippers die in vain on that market??

Nutrabolics? NUTRABOLICS?
There's the answer right there! Do you people have any idea what Nutrabolics really is? Neither do I!
Neither does Canada or the U.S.! Neither does Anderson Silva! Hell, just the name "Nutrabolics" is scary. It sounds eerily like "Nuclear E-Bonics."
Every single MMA fighter interviewed by the Government denies ever having seen a product called Nutrabolics, let alone consumed it. Apparently, Nutrabolics doesn't even exist!
But wait! Late breaking news has just arrived from the Canadian border!
The Action Security Section (ASS) of Canada And the FBI (Fabricated Bullshit Information), through an anonymous tip, discovered a case of amber bottles labeled "Nutrabolics" in an old warehouse on the U.S. side of the border.
Canadian and U.S. Chemical experts delved into this serious matter by drinking mass quantities of Nutrabolics, only to discover that "Nutrabolics" is actually an alcoholic beverage known as "Canadian Club Whiskey," (which is a real product).
Authorities from both nations are continuing to carefully test the beverage (for their final official report).

Guys, you know the reason is simple, this type of thing has been going on for decades, it’s because he’s black plain and simple, that’s all the reason they need. I mean the US has a black president on the way; Canada is trying to keep there black population in check so none of them get the idea to running for prime minister, so why not pick on the most bad ass black guy in the world to keep us in check.

Does not sound very plausible. Sorry.

Doesn’t sound plausible, you’re right it doesn’t, geez you much be some kind of genius, nobody else’s comments sound plausible either. Do you not know a joke when you see one; Canada is by far a racist country. Its seem just as funny as anyone else comments, every black guy uses that excuse when there is some BS going on with them, I don’t know maybe it takes being black to get the joke.
