Nutball

TCM came across the game from an episode of Jackass. In the episode, the gang sits round in a circle and throw a racquetball at each other’s nutsack. The person who can withstand the pain the longest, (which was Steveo) wins.

Well, this sounds damn painful and decreases the chances of procreation, so the team here at TCM, we made a few edits…

Nutball: the Game
Ages 18 & up
Recommended after hours of drinking

Nutball is a game played one-on-one or in teams of two. The object of the game is to kick a ball and hit the opposing player in the nuts with it.

We know what you’re thinking…that would hurt more than a getting hit with a racquetball in the nuts…well, no shit, that’s why you’re allowed to use your hands to cover up.

The Nutball: the size, type, and style of ball you use is completely us to you, but TCM promotes using the official nutball – a combination tennis/soccerball.  You can probably find this at some store near your home or try Amazon.  Hell, they might even put a link in the ad’s TCM has rocking on these pages.

The Space: after you have the ball, you need space.  TCM suggests a long hallway or somewhere narrow and confined.  Make sure there are no windows.  Accidents can and probably will happen, especially after many beers:

OK.  So now you’ve got your official nutball and your space.  Now you are ready to play.

Rules:
1. There are no rules. These are more like guidelines.
2. You can kick or throw the nutball as hard as you can. But the harder you kick or throw it, the harder it will come back at you when its your turn.
2. You keep score like a baseball game – the game of Nutball is played by innings with 3 outs for each team.
3. Every strike in the nuts, is a run.
4. Team with the most runs after 9 innings wins.
5. You or your opponent should try to find someway to protect your nuts. TCM suggests the old soccer-style nut clasp. It’s still going to hurt like a bitch when you are hit, but it takes away the pain.
6. You can also wear other protective gear, but the more gear you wear, the more man points your buddies can deduct from your count.

Usually by the 5th inning, someone is ready to quit or ice their balls and the game ends.  That’s why TCM suggests doing this when highly wasted.

Last we hear, Nutball is beginning to take off in parts of India and Sri Lanka.  We don’t know why, but we’re pretty stoked to make that report.
