For at least the past couple years, a Toledo, Ohio, group of urologists have offered a special promotion leading up to March Madness: Guys can get doctor’s orders to lay on the couch and watch the early rounds of the men’s NCAA basketball tournament. And all you have to do is get a vasectomy.
Yeah. That’s ALL you have to do.
The practice — Genito-Urinary Surgeons — even will throw in a free bag of frozen peas, according to its radio commercial (which I can’t find online). There’s no recent news stories about the promotion but here’s one from Snip City 2010.
And, with a promotion like that, you sure can come up with some great lines — like the one used in the headline, taken from the radio spot.
Now, I’m a sports fan and love March Madness tournament action — but I’m not sure I love it that much to get my ticket punched to Snip City. (For me though, it’s too late to take advantage of the promotion anyway.)
But what about you? Would you lower your seed just to watch the NCAA tourney?
