Scrotoss - It's Nuts! (SFW) Inspired by a game played by the women of the Cree tribe, Scrotoss is the unofficial name of a game involving tossing and catching a beanbag shaped like a pair of testicles with a stick. The game has developed an enthusiast in Bob the Angry Flower creator Stephen Notely, who has begun blogging with a handful of friends their exploits in attempting to spread the love of the sport.

Hm. Then how about "sow the seed of their love of their sport in the hair of unsuspecting passers-by"?

There has never been a game so thoroughly designed to make me frown worriedly at it. ... I... don't think scrotal tossing is something we should be encouraging.

First link: "Internal Server Error". Well... that kind of makes sense, from what I can gather from the comments.

Pet Peeve? People who love to point out how "unfunny" puns are.

Indoor scrotoss, "It's balls to the wall action, baby!"

Stephen Notely judged a theatresports improv tournament we played in a few years ago in Edmonton. He didn't think the "Americans" (we) were very funny. He was harsh, but I think he felt bad, he gave us a free signed collection of Angry Flower comics. I cried while I read it.

It would also be a good name for a Starcraft-themed punk band.

Speaking of games with double-meaning names, there is Cornhole.

Scrotoss is also a popular blog about recent supreme court decisions. The nudity is usually tasteful.
