It seems that it really does take balls to be a rugby fanatic:

A Welsh rugby fan cut off his own testicles to celebrate Wales beating England at rugby, the Daily Mirror reported Tuesday.

Geoff Huish, 26, was so convinced England would win Saturday’s match he told fellow drinkers at a social club, “If Wales win I’ll cut my balls off,” the paper said.

Friends at the club in Caerphilly, south Wales, thought he was joking.
But after the game Huish went home, severed his testicles with a knife, and walked 200 yards back to the bar with the testicles to show the shocked drinkers what he had done.

Huish was taken to hospital where he remained in serious condition, the paper said.

Right then.

So…

  1. Does this qualify him for a Darwin Award?
  2. It seems a pity to have wasted his bits & pieces on a rugby match. Imagine how easy it how would be to clinch certain arguments with such a stunt.
