The Best Worst Drag Padge

The Best Worst Drag Padge is a celebration of the majesty of bad drag in a one night competition. Through unconventional twists on common pageant prompts each of our contestants will be tasked with presenting their very own Bad Drag package that showcases who they are while also embracing the unserious, over the top, and silly, Chucklehead Brand.
