Jockstraps

While just slightly off topic, a musical artifact has come up for auction. Yes, for about $40k you can own Elvis Presley's rhinestone-studded jockstrap, guaranteed authentic by the auction house. (The listing does not mention if it contains pubes, stains of any sort, etc. Just rhinestones.)

While Elvis was the ultimate hetero sex symbol, there have been some rumors about his sexual persuasion. I think one look at this settles the issue. For those under the age of about 60, I point out that for many years (while he was still young and sexy) it was forbidden to show Elvis' crotch during his TV appearances-- the camera had to be kept above the waist. Perhaps the jock did its job well, as this was not because of any particularly visible bulge. Rather, it was the way he gyrated his hips while dancing, which was considered highly indecent.
 
Wish my coaches required jocks for sports and phys ed growing up in early 00s. Didn't discover them myself until college, but interestingly several of my athletic roommates had their own jocks I would find in our laundry room.

Yeah man, same. Wish I'd grown up in the days of every guy walking around the locker room in their jock before and after PE.

I was in high school PE in the 70s where you could smell the rank straps before you even got n the locker room. Coaches constantly telling guys to take them home to wash them. Got hooked then and keep that smell goin in at least 20-30 straps at a time - even got a locker basket last week to put em in.
