They're Nuts: Despite COVID, Texas Testicle Festival Still on for August 1 in Fredericksburg

The Texas Testicle Festival plans to move forward with its August 1 start date, welcoming all adventurous and COVID-19-free foodies, according to a MySA report.

The ball-fest held a previous event in January, where 150 attendees gathered to celebrate the nuances of various animal testicles in culinary applications.

While some places now allow gatherings, it comes with challenges regarding social distancing measures. Best of Texas, which organizes festivals mostly in Fredericksburg, told mySA it plans to follow the same distancing mandates Texas restaurants are required to follow by limiting capacity to 50%.

Claire Ball — no, we're not fucking joking — an organizer with the event, said the fest was hoping to build on the 150 attendees who showed up in January. However, it's tempered its expectations because, as of last Thursday, it's only sold 20 tickets.

Somebody must have gotten laid there once, and everyone's eager to see if lightning will ever strike twice.
