Nicely done! :-)

Too funny! Been there, done this, with having 2 sons myself. Thank you for the great morning laugh and the reminder of times past when I too have stood in that same isle, pondering which to buy.
Great post...you really should submit this!

Hahahaha! Hysterical! I can only imagine what I would do faced with this prediciment. I would probably buy one of every kind too.

And I also agree with Al - this is submission worthy material!

story was great. but the best part was the mom talk on the field! i have been down the road of penis protectors in my dad. thank goodness he stopped the contact sports and plays soccer where they don't wear them.

then again, i have seen more than one guy go down after the ball to the jewels.

Nice. Can't imagine trying to do this. I can barely pick out a bra myself! And I'm a woman!

Hysterical! I had a very similar experience over the spring...and just chose not to protect...is that bad?

That's funny! I, too, suffer from Foot-In-Mouth disease, but somehow it doesn't seem as funny as your stammering was.
I have two boys and thank goodness I didn't ever have to buy any Jewel Protectors. I wouldn't have known anymore about them than you did.
Funny story. The salesman may STILL be talking about it.

LOL - too funny! Thanks for this post, it totally made my day. I'll jump on the you-should-submit-this bandwagon too. :D

That was hilarious! Thank you for the laughter this morning. It was badly needed.

I used to love that song by Billy Preston too! ; )

Hilarious story. Well told. I have all sisters and the first time I had to buy a cup for my son I was totally lost too.

I love your picture in the header, what beach is that?

Thanks for stoping by my blog.

HA! I was a single mom when my oldest son first needed one. I had NO clue how he was supposed to wear it, and he was too young to know better - he wore it upside down until my father finally figured out that something wasnt quite right!

hahahaha! definitely one of the funniest things I've read all week! :)

Uhhhh, how 'bout an in-store credit? :)

I've been puzzling about this all day. I have two sons. The younger is 21, but I am pretty sure I never bought such a thing -- at least if I did it was a one size fits all you need it for the sports kit and don't even think about a variation. I'm also completely sure their dad was buying it instead. Did I repress the whole experience? Or do Brits not care about the family jewels the way Americans clearly do? If there are any Brits lurking, I would really appreciate enlightenment.

(I did buy shin pads and mouth guards every year, honest -- not to mention cricket bats.)

Ha, ha! What a great story. I'm still laughing.

What a hilarious story!!!

I love the part about the 36 inches. Hopefully you found one that fit your son!
