Crufts looks like the paragon of normality in comparison to the Cockroach Racing World Championships, which take place every 26 January (Australia Day) at Brisbane's Story Bridge Hotel in Queensland. It's the biggest gathering of thoroughbred 'cockys' including Cocky Balboa, Ita Buttroach and Sir Roach-a-Lot. Raising money for charity, there's also a prize for the best-dressed and a 'Miss Cocky' pageant. We know what you're thinking: how can they tell them apart?
