  • Great Excuse to Get Together

    For those of us in the western half of the U.S., I think one of these events would be an ideal place to have a TC-survivor reunion:

    Testicle Festival (Clinton, MT)
    Turkey Testicle Festival (Byron, IL)

    There are others in various places and states, with different varieties (like hog) available.
