The Testicle Festival Gets a Swift Kick in the Plans

I was checking out the latest event cancellations that are happening because of the Coronavirus lockdown of 2020.

I just saw a funny photo in one of the Facebook groups I'm in and the caption on the pic said, "Not the testicle festival, too!" (Click here to see the headline from The Daily Telegram.) I chuckled (because I needed a good laugh).

"My Facebook friends are crazy!" I said to myself, as I scrolled down the page. It turns out, however, that the Testicle Festival is definitely a real thing, and I'm just now finding this stuff out.

Dare I look to see what the Testicle Festival is all about? I have to admit, I am kind of scared to look.

My puzzled mind is coiling into a tailspin trying to figure this one out. Exactly what kind of testicle activities are they doing over there?

The Testicle Festival turns out to be a fundraiser set in Deerfield, MI, and run by its local American Legion Post #392. This is their EIGHTEENTH year gobbling up testicles in their tiny town. The packed-out event boasts selling an average of 300 pounds of cow balls, battered, deep-fried, and served on a dinner plate.

Okay, this festival event is worse than I thought.

After doing some Google research, I discovered that many states have their own Testicle Festivals, and this is news to me! Why haven't I gotten the memo?

Here is a list of other Testicle Festivals (Testy Festys) in the U.S. of A.:
Texas
California
Montana - Oops, they shuttered their Testicle Festival back in 2018 due to fatal accidents.
Missouri
Illinois
Wisconsin
and a whole lot more!
