Member Omni Dragon Posted August 15, 2012 Member Share Posted August 15, 2012 ☯What are they about? The first time I remember seeing one was in DRUNKEN MASTER Tino Wong was holding one I've wondered about it since then (also the 1st time I saw a shape) was it just a popular way of keeping a pet, a fashion statement, a lot of rich characters seem to carry them was it a way to show your wealth ☯ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member OpiumKungFuCracker Posted August 15, 2012 Member Share Posted August 15, 2012 Chinese Bird Cages is equivalent to walking the dog but with more swagger and you can keep your glock/hand guns in the bottom of the cage in case you need to go all out in a tea house....
