Vicar Happened to Be Naked When He Fell On the Potato... With His Ass

Dec 12th, 2008

For some reason, this incredible news story escaped our attention. Maybe because it was published on a day we had more important things to worry about...

On Halloween, the Telegraph published a story that began:

A vicar attended hospital with a potato stuck up his bottom - and claimed it got there after he fell on to the vegetable while naked.

The clergyman, in his 50s, told nurses he had been hanging curtains when he fell backwards on to his kitchen table.

He happened to be nude at the time of the mishap, said the vicar, who insisted he had not been playing a sex game.

The vicar had to undergo a delicate operation to extract the vegetable, one of a range of odd items medics in

Sheffield have had to remove from people's backsides or genitals.

Others include a can of deodorant, a cucumber, a Russian doll

I believe by "Russian doll" they mean a nesting doll - you know, the kind where one doll houses a smaller doll and that doll houses an even smaller doll, and so on. They are made of wood and look sort of like squat bowling pins, and I would imagine that might be easier to get up your ass than the kind of doll you're referring to.

The Russian doll was probably a matryoshka.

Or that chick you've been showing naked on Hooksexup this week.

why the fuck would they be publishing this? When I used to do more ER shifts we saw RFOs (Rectal Foreign Objects) all the time (cell phones were popular). None of those made it into the news even when, in one case, it was an NHL second-string goaltender with his girlfriend's fist up his ass and his pelvic floor or rectum had gone into spasm and they were stuck.

"It was a million to one shot, Doc. Million to one."

blackavar, are you wondering why the vicar was singled out to be reported to the press? The answer is: if you'd called us about the goalie, we'd have run that...

Really nice post to spend some time on reading it at least as for me. A small question, why haven't you you send that post to social bookmarks? It should bring much traffic to this page.
