JESSE VENTURA INVITED TO BUFFALO CHIP TOSS

JESSE VENTURA INVITED TO BUFFALO CHIP TOSS

LUVERNE, Minn. (Wireless Flash) -- Organizers of an upcoming festival in Minnesota have asked Jesse Ventura to pull in his chips -- buffalo chips, that is. The wrestler-turned-governor of Minnesota has been invited to participate in the annual Buffalo Chip Throwing Contest which will take place in Luverne, Minnesota, this Saturday (June 5). Participants get three tries to fling dried buffalo poop into a regulation toilet from 20 feet away. Organizer Dave Smith claims many politicians have had a "streak" of luck in the turd-tossing contest in past years -- but he admits politicians may be experts at throwing the B.S. So far Smith has heard no word on whether Ventura will attend the buffalo chip throwing contest, but it appears as if Ventura will be a party pooper: A spokesperson from the governor's office says it's highly unlikely he will attend the function.
