If you're a degenerate gambler and need something to bet on after The Masters, here's a fresh option . . .
The newest sport you didn't have on your bingo card is . . . SPERM RACING. A startup in L.A. says it's launching the first Sperm Racing league. They claim it's not a joke.
They're livestreaming the first event on April 25th from the Hollywood Palladium theater on Sunset Boulevard. Tickets to see it in person go on sale today.
They built a microscopic race track, so guys can go head-to-head and see who's got the fastest swimmers. The track "mimics" the dynamics of a woman's reproductive system. So we're guessing there's no actual egg involved.
They say the point is to bring attention to fertility and turn health "into a competition," because it's something you can train for just like any other sport.
Quote, "It's about making male fertility something people actually want to talk about, track, and improve."
They say the new league will have everything other sports have, including press conferences . . . "weigh-ins" . . . play-by-play commentary . . . and betting. You'll be able to pick favorites and bet on winners.
The first race will feature competitors from UCLA and USC . . . so, a real cross-town rivalry. But they eventually hope to get celebrities involved.
