At first blush, the mascot's name is rather endearing: Mr. Balls. But for those who might find that descriptive title offensive, the scrotum-shaped character also answers to "Senhor Testiculo" in Brazil, where he is a spokes-thing for a group that is seeking to raise awareness of testicular cancer research. "Both children and adults loved taking pictures with the mascot, a friendly snowman in the shape of testicle," says the non-profit organization's website. You've got to admire Mr. Balls' bravery to let it all hang out. The character's eyes have a kind of bedroom quality, and, thanks to the positive response to Sponge Bob's dental occlusion, Mr. Balls' buck teeth are almost fashionable. View Quote |
