Urinal Video Game




(Allentown, Pennsylvania) The local minor league baseball franchise, the Lehigh Valley IronPigs, has announced that a urine-controlled video gaming system will be operating in the men's rooms of its home field when the season starts next month.

The system functions as follows:

First, a male baseball fan walks into any of Coca-Cola Park's many men's rooms. He swaggers up to his urinal of choice, noticing a video monitor mounted near eye level on the wall, above. As he gets close, "the video console flips into gaming mode, using patented technology that detects both his presence and stream," according to the IronPigs' press release.

Then "algorithms" take over from there, letting "the user engage with the screen by aiming in different directions to test their agility and knowledge."

After wrapping up, urinators/users are presented with a final score and an online access code to look up where they rank against other fans at the game. High scores will also be posted to Coca-Cola Park video boards.

A rotating variety of games will be available.
