Total Pro Sports – Back in 2005 while going through security at the Minneapolis-St. Paul airport, ex-Vikings running back Onterrio Smith was stopped and detained for being in possession of The Whizzinator, a device with a prosthetic penis attached to a jock strap and filled with clean urine to help pass a drug test.

Now, The Whizzinator is back in the news after selling for $750 at an auction in Shakopee, Minnesota.  The lucky buyer was Matt Little, a 26-year-old owner of Buster’s Sports Bar in Mankato.

“We’re a sports bar, and I’m a sports collector,” Little said. “I’d love to have the Original Whizzinator on display. … I’m going to use it.”

It is one of the stranger pieces of sports memorabilia, and while the story attached to it is much more interesting than a Tiger Woods Gatorade bottle, or even LeBron James’ high school scrap books, I wouldn’t think people would be interested in eating or drinking anywhere in the vicinity of Onterrio Smith’s fake penis.

Man Pays $750 For Original Whizzinator

Hat Tip – [Star Tribune]

What a great idea only if the so called Whizzinator was legal to buy and sell the device.  For only $150 how could you go wrong not to invest in this product if you know your going to get in trouble by your employer.  Wouldn’t you invest the money to save yourself and your job???????

The Creators of the ‘Whizzinator‘ now face up to 8 years in prison.  If any of you don’t remember the Whizzinator, it was a urine cleansing gizmo that helped past NFL players and one time Minnesota Vikings running back “Onterrio Smith” cheat and pass on drug tests. Onterrio Smith in 2005 was caught with the Whizzinator and many dried urine pouches at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.  He was then suspended by the NFL for the year and then released by the Vikings soon after.

The creators of the ‘Whizzinator’, Robert Catalano and George Wills who owned online-based Puck Technology face charges for conspiring to defraud the federal agency that administers workplace drug testing programs.  The 2 men are scheduled to be sentenced in Febuary of 2009 and face up to 8 years in prision and a $500,000 fine.
