CHICAGO, Feb. 19 (UPI) -- A suburban Chicago urology practice says college basketball's March Madness tournament is the perfect time for men to get a vasectomy.
Doctors at 21st Century Urology in Orland Park have launched a two-week ad campaign to induce men to schedule the procedure during the days before the first two weekends of the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament, the Chicago Press Release Service reports.
The doctors say picking that time slot for a vasectomy will allow basketball aficionados to stay home and watch all the games.
All vasectomy patients will receive a free pizza to snack on and a bag of frozen peas to help with any swelling, says Dr. Tony Mammen, one of the urologists who set up the ad campaign.
The promotion offer applies to men who schedule the procedure on March 18, 19, 25 and 26.
Those dates coincide with the first two weekends when games are played virtually non-stop.
