David Gibbons, 14, was changing classes in his Crosby, Minn. high school when he was attacked by another student playing a game called "sack tapping."

David's mother, Christy Gibbons, said it wasn't until hours later that they realized something was wrong.

"One o'clock in the morning he woke me up and told me he was in excruciating pain," she said.

David was taken to St. Joseph's Hospital in Brainerd, Minn. where surgeons removed his right testicle.

And David is not the only student who has suffered the consequences of the "sack tapping" game.

"It's just gotten way out of control," said Dr. Scott Wheeler, a urologist in Brainerd, Minn. who says he performs three to four surgeries a year on boys with ruptured testicles and other complications as a result of "sack tapping."

"All parents, you need to have this talk with your kids not to do it. It's lost its humor. It's not a game anymore. People get hurt," he added.

So, escapists, thoughts? Personally, I'm wondering if Minnesota is really so boring that the only thing boy's can think to do is nail each other in the daddy bags.

You said "Fox News" as the source. Some of the Escapist population won't believe it now.

But I will.

AND THIS SACK TAPPING THING IS UTTERLY RETARDED!

Huh. This is kind of an ironic aticle, because we were just talking about groin attacks in that other thread..

That sounds just wrong. Glad we don't have any game like that at my school. I feel sorry for this kid.

I tend to make sure no other guy gets that close to mine, but it makes me think, what straight man would was to slap another guy's balls?

Nah, that's a waste of money that could be spent on martial arts lessons. Let's face it, IF you can hit a guy who knows martial arts in the balls, it's not likely that you'll go home with all your limbs.
