March Madness preparations: Cold drinks, chips, pizza, frozen peas

There's a college fight song that gained popularity a couple of decades ago during a memorable March Madness with lyrics that started out: "V for Villanova, V for victory."

Well, a urology practice in the Pacific Northwest has a new version. How about, "V for vasectomy?"

The Oregon Urology Institute is suggesting that men use the down time they'd normally spend watching the NCAA tournament as a few days when they could recuperate from a vasectomy.

Th institute's radio advertisement puts it thusly:

"Get your vasectomy at Oregon Urology Institute the day before the tournament starts. It's snip city."

The folks who run the institute say the promotion has been a big hit. The two dozens spots that were, ahem, carved out, for the first round and the second week are filling up fast. They'll even send the frozen peas to help with the convalescence.

You know, the NCAA is protective about its marquee event but no word on whether it wants -- A CUT. Bada-boom.

Thanks to the Fark Web site for pointing out the promotion.

What a shear genius way to make a buck, and attempt to reduce the newborn population, while giving a man time off to enjoy the madness. It actually seems like an interesting approach, and as you've said, the spots are filling up fast.

Ouch. For some dumb reason, I forwarded to my wife--and mother of my three and done kids.

Joe,
Love it ... I wonder what elective surgery I can have deferred for next Super Bowl.
