First round March Madness is the peak week of the year for . . . what industry?

<p>You’ll never guess.</p>

<p>For tax accountants, it’s obviously the week leading up to April 15th. And Super Bowl Sunday is the biggest avocado day in America each year. Well I just heard on the radio that the week leading up to the first round of the NCAA basketball tournament is the rush period for one particular industry.</p>

<p>Vasectomies.</p>

<p>When I first heard it, I said “Huh?!,” and then I got it. A man leaves the doctor’s office with orders to go home, ice up, and spend several days on the couch. And for four days in an otherwise empty, bad-weather month, there’s basketball on TV from noon to midnight, day after day after day after day. It’s the perfect time to have it done. But it still seems weird.</p>

<p>So admit it - for the next four days, every time you hear a sportscaster mention “Dickie V,” you won’t be thinking about Dick Vitale, will you? :)</p>

<p>Well, I was going to guess <em>gambling.</em> </p>

<p>Clearly lacking in imagination.</p>

<p>That is the most ingenious idea I’ve ever heard. I need to go get snipped ASAP.</p>

<p>Well my son is having his wisdom teeth taken out tomorrow, and will be laid up all weekend, so I suppose this is a good weekend to just lie around the house.</p>

<p>Too, too funny. I was going to guess beer.</p>

<p>Yeah. I heard about that. The other big time to get snipped is the week of the Masters. The week of the US Open falls on Fathers Day and therefore is a distant third on popularity for this procedure. I understand frozen peas are a required first aid.</p>

<p>Wisdom teeth - of course! Oral surgeons need to run “Molar Madness” specials this week!</p>
