Go nuts over big testicles to dangle below the bumper

If you've got a really big truck, you might need really big balls.

That's behind a growing fad hitting Edmonton streets.



Made from hard plastic, the big, dangling testicles are being found tied beneath the rear bumpers of local trucks - by picture-hanging wire, zip ties and shoelaces.

"Putting male genitalia on your truck ... makes it a man truck, instead of any old truck," said Amy Kaler, an associate professor of sociology at the University of Alberta.

And retailers - there aren't many in Edmonton yet - say women are buying the big balls, which come in different colours, including brass and chrome.

You can find the "BULLsBALLs" website here.
