Controversial Melbourne artist Lushsux has given the day Shane Warne got absolutely belted at the races the homage it deserves.
You’ve probably seen the iconic photos of Warnie smashing bevs and huffing darts at the Ascot Races in 2013, and we say ‘probably’ because we’ve sure as hell used them every chance we’ve had.
He was dating model/actor/tv sex queen Liz Hurley at the time, pictured here having her lower lip hoovered up by Warnie’s durrie muncher.
TBQH, the federal government could just scrap the entire citizenship test and simply ask newcomers to name this man:
These pics are the very fabric of Australian culture. Brings a tear to the eye. Just a bit bloody spesh, aye.
You can now relieve that day forever at what appears to be a mostly vacant strip of shops in St Kilda (the address is specifically 144 Chapel St, if a giant image of a former cricketer / current thirst beast isn’t direction enough).
Amusingly enough, it was posted around the exact same time as Warnie himself announced he had some “exciting news” to share with us today, accompanied by an alarmingly political photo of himself.
So far, guesses include: he’s running for PM, starting his own party, going back to the jungle for ‘I’m A Celebrity‘, returning to cricket, bringing cricket to the States, becoming an Uber driver, and joining the casts of ‘Suits‘ (although that one could just be wishful thinking).
Ps Unfortunately it’s not being part of an episode in @Suits_USA yet either !!

Obviously, the correct answer is ‘smashing frothies in front of his mural’. We wait to be proven entirely correct.
