Clinic wants to be ’snip city’ at NCAA tourney time
- Story Highlights
- Clinic promoting vasectomies just before NCAA basketball tournament
- Surgery usually requires a couple of days off your feet for recuperation
- Clinic’s ads also promise “recovery kit” of sports magazines, free pizza delivery
SPRINGFIELD, Oregon (AP) – For guys who park in front of the TV during college basketball’s March Madness, the Oregon Urology Institute has a suggestion: Why not use that time to recover from a vasectomy?
“When March Madness approaches you need an excuse … to stay at home in front of the big screen,” the clinic’s radio ad says. “Get your vasectomy at Oregon Urology Institute the day before the tournament starts. It’s snip city.”
Institute Administrator Terry FitzPatrick said men need two to four days to recover from the procedure — but not all take the time.
He’s reserved a dozen appointment slots for March 19, the day before the first tipoffs of the NCAA Tournament, and another dozen for March 26, before the tournament’s second week.
He reported filling 15 slots by Thursday afternoon and expects to fill all 24.
The sports radio station broadcasting the clinic’s ads promises to send each patient a recovery kit of sports magazines, free pizza delivery and a bag of frozen peas.
Peas?
“The frozen peas are malleable enough that you can get them right in there and get the swelling down,” FitzPatrick said.

Would you like to bet that a few of those slots were filled by wives who didn’t bother to discuss it with their husbands beforehand? (Surprise!)
Let’s get one thing straight. It is the woman’s responsibility to make sure that no more children occur in a relationship. It doesn’t matter if the relationship involves marriage, living together, one night stands, whatever. It is her responsibility…period. End of discussion.
Why should a guy turn himself into a inoperable tool just to keep the peace at home? If you want to have kids…fine. If you want to cease the ability to have any more kids…even better. But mangling a man’s privates is not the answer.
So what is the answer you might ask?
Immediately after childbirth.
It’s the perfect scenario. She’s already on the table. Exposed. Gapping. She’ll be too tired to put up much of a fight. Just slip the doctor an extra $20.00. Problem solved.
Now go enjoy the NCAA Tournament.

Somehow, my brother-in-law got talked into getting “the snip”. He wasn’t happy, but a doctor convinced him it was easier on him than having the equivalent procedure done on my sis. I know I don’t ever want it done to me.
You crack me up. I don’t think $20 would cut it. Doctors piss $20 worth of gourmet coffee in their first leak at the office.

By the way, I have to add: That urologist is a marketing genius.
