Diners can 'have a ball' at testicle festival

The fundraising idea may seem a little nuts, but Oakdale's annual Testicle Festival is always a big hit.

On Monday, volunteers with the town's Rotary Club plan to fry up 400 pounds of the private parts of bulls and serve them to diners who pay $50 apiece for the sit-down meal.

The event, whose proceeds also benefit the Oakland Cowboy Museum, has drawn an average of 450 people and last year raised $28,000.

It's common practice on cattle ranches for young male bovines to be castrated into steers, which after the initial loss, eventually makes them more docile and easier to handle. Fans of the delicacy, also referred to as "mountain oysters," come from around the state.

According to Rotarians, everyone who buys a ticket is guaranteed to "have a ball."

I admit it. I've had the bull's jewels. Deep fried and with hot sauce, pretty darned good.

Have had them a time or two, when I had stayed with some rancher friends in Montana. They aren't too bad at all, I have had worse things.

well what if someone fried some up and didn't tell you what they where until after you ate them? Or even mixed them up in something else.
