Swinging Steaks U.S.A.

What I thought was a passing fad appears to be a national trend. As you might recall, I recently posted about two festivals, one in Wisconsin and another in Utah, celebrating what is probably one of the more famous 'cuts' of offal, namely Rocky Mountain Oysters. Well, it seems that there are many other such events taking place all over the country. I was able to find the following:

Past events in 2007

• The 16th Annual Calffry, in Stillwater, Oklahoma; You can buy tickets for next year's festival starting March 1, 2008. There also appears to be a College Fest scheduled at some time later this year.


• Tiro Testicle Festival, in Tiro, Ohio, last Saturday in April;


• Testicle Festival East, Washington D.C., April 28


• Olean Testicle Festival, in Olean, Missouri, June 2;

Upcoming events in 2007

• Ryegate Testicle Festival, in Ryegate , Montana, second Saturday in June


• Round the Bend Steakhouse's 14th Annual Testicle Festival, in Ashland, Nebraska, June 15-16;


• The 25th Annual Testicle Festival, in Missoula, Montana, August 1-5;


• Clinton Testicle Festival, Clinton, Montana, every September;


• (Honorable mention) 28th Annual Turkey Testicle Festival, in Byron, Illinois, October;

I'm sure that the list goes on and on...
