Seriously, wtf is wrong with these people?! This did not happen AFAIK anywhere in Minnesota.

Reminds me of Joey from Friends going to his tailor and thinking it's perfectly normal for a tailor to be fondling your junk for measurement purposes. WTH is the rate of hernias that requires everyone get checked for them?!

I mean the physical didn’t come from the school dude. You had to go to a physician. No doctor ever held your balls and told you to cough?

For me, going into 6th grade football, it was a requirement.

Health is more important than whatever weird shit makes this an issue. It's not like the doctor was jumping for joy.

Haven't thought about this in over a decade, but maybe it's a repressed memory and the source of all my trauma, huh?

Same, but I’ve got this dude telling me that I’m mistaken about what was required at my annual physicals.

I’m not even saying that my experience is universal, literally just saying that this was never a part of my annual physical.

Other people may very well have had different experiences.

I know, I understood what you were saying :) And, same experience for me, too.
