Abstract

The article, titled "Win Big Prizes With... Spot The Ballbag," describes a new game inspired by the old "Spot The Ball" competitions from British newspapers. In this new game, the author goes to a park, hides naked in bushes, and invites players to guess where his ballbag is in a photoshopped picture. The game's objective is to encourage reader engagement and offer rewards for the most accurate guesses. The top prize is having the author link five stories of the winner's choice in his upcoming articles, while runners-up will have one story linked. If no one guesses the exact location, the closest guess will win a consolation prize.

I don’t know if you have seen such a competition before, but back in the eighties British newspapers took a photo, from one of the weekend’s football matches, photoshopped the ball out of the picture, and invited people to guess where the ball was. Winners could expect large cash prizes, sometimes in excess of 12 pounds, fifteen shillings and sixpence.

As I am no longer capable of playing football I cannot recreate that exact game. Instead, I have devised this fascinating game. I go down to my local park, strip naked and hide in the bushes and shrubberies until only my ballbag is visible. My wife takes a photo and shows it to the other visitors of the park and offers a fairy cake to the first child that can point out my dangly knackers.

Mrs Hackney thought it would be fun to share the game with my new online friends at Medium. So over to you guys. The above picture has had my hairy coin purse photoshopped out. If you can guess which square my wedding tackle is swinging in you will win the top prize of having me link five stories of yours in the next five articles I publish. Anyone choosing a square next to the correct location of my bollocks will get one story linked. If no one gets the exact position of my fuzzy spunk bunkers then the nearest one will win the booby prize of being a new character in my ongoing MuddyUm application saga.

Locate my nuts by using the vertical/horizontal axis i.e: B-7, S-12, like that.
