On Saturday night, roughly 500 people are expected to gather at the Arlington chapter of the American Legion for the 7th annual Montana State Society Testicle Festival-- also known as 'Testy Fest.'
This juice frontier delicacy is a special joy for Northwestern folks living inside (or just beyond) the Beltway.
For just $20 ($25 at the door), the festival offers "all the Crown Royal you can drink and all the balls you can eat,” festival organizer Birttany Beauliue says.

Testy Fest 2011 takes place Saturday, June 11. from 6-10 p.m. at the Arlington chapter of the American Legion. Tickets are
