BALLS

TESTICLE FESTIVAL

yes, yes we did

Clayton's used to that pose a lot.  Just kidding.  I would never...

As you might have guessed from the pictures above we did, in fact attend the 2011 Testicle Festival in Woodruff, UT.  I'm pretty sure the fact that I have eaten balls (doesn't matter that they were from a cow) makes men more afraid of me.  Bring it boys! 

He is all about getting his picture taken when it comes to eating balls.  interesting.

If attending this event next year please remember the following

1. Know your geography.  Woodruff is a long ways out in the middle of no where.  Something I wish I would have known when we had Erik and Kami drive us out to Woodruff which we thought was "just next to Bear Lake".
2. Cow balls/testicles are not that good.  I'm pretty sure they deep fry them to make them more enticing.  Tasted a lot like liver.  I do not like liver.  Using a lot of dipping sauce will also help.
3. You may have to force the testicle cook to take your money.  Seriously we waited for almost 5 minutes AFTER we got our testicles (always makes me smile when I say "our testicles") for them to take our money.  Finally we just shoved it in someones face and left.
4. It was pretty "balls-y" of us (forgive me.  I had to throw that in somewhere) to show up knowing nothing about the festival except that there would be testicles.  We showed up in t-shirts, shorts and flipflops to this small town (almost family reunion-like) event.  Everyone else was decked out in their best wranglers, cowboy hats, cowboy boots (and probably spurs too), and dress shirts.  EVERYONE ELSE.  No exaggeration here.  We were the only ones not wearing this attire.  And boy did we get the stare down when we pulled up.  Stink eye right and left.  Needless to say we got our testicles (there it is again) and left.  There was a sign heading out of town that said, "Woodruff, UT - coldest place in Utah with the warmest hearts" (or something like that).  I'm calling BULL on that one.  Just kidding for anyone from Woodruff reading this blog.  I'm sure that the people there are very nice.  You might have to introduce me to them sometime.

Again a big THANK YOU to Kami and Erik for spending a good portion of the afternoon with us driving, and driving, and driving, and driving to Woodruff. 

Also THANK YOU to Bear Lake shakes for hitting the spot after a deep fried testicle.
