BATTLE MOUNTAIN, Nev. - For the third year in a row, this northern Nevada town turned the pungent press it received after being designated the "Armpit of America" into a tourism success.



About 1,500 people came to Battle Mountain last weekend for the annual Armpit Festival. Sponsored by Old Spice, it featured such events as wet T-shirt and armpit beauty contests, boxing matches and bed races.

Where do you find all of this wonderful thought provoking information?

That is one place that is not on my" must see before I die" vacations.

Okay, I admit it. When I first saw the title of this thread, I DID think it was about New Jersey!

As I said to a friend of mine from "one of those squareish states in the middle," at least there's reason to mention New Jersey!

And all along, I thought that WE lived in the Armpit of America - well, that's a relief.

Yeah, it's rough walking around with curlers in all day before the contest....
