I do wish that I had cauliflower ears. It is such a symbol of those who have been through the battles. Does anyone know how to create cauliflower without enduring the battles?

Lay on side.

With a trustworthy partner, possibly a friend, have them place their palm over your ear lobe.

After doing so, have your partner vigourously rub his hand back, forth, up, down and in circular fashions.

If skin breaks the same time the cartilege does (which causes the fat earage) wash, rinse, then repeat the vigourous rubbing section once to infinity times again.

... "to infinity?"

...or beyond I suppose.

I suppose the "infinity and beyond" route would be the ticket. In Vegas, it was so neat seeing 80 year-old guys with a case of the flower.

And there were even several of the gals that had flower too.

I got the rock on my ear from lots of battles in the wrestling room. I like it. Makes me look tougher than i really am.

Naw, you were always tough Cody.

I never got them because even 40 years ago when I hung out in the wrestling room when my dad coached he made me wear headgear all the time. Like Randy, I wish I had them, but I don't want them THAT bad!

I'm glad I only have it a little. I had surgery to get the rest to go away. I adhere to the Steve Mocco philosophy of cauliflower ear. I think it's retarded to want it. You're all crazy.

Dear usawks1,

I once asked a Korean coach how a group of cadet age wrestlers from his country had such beat up ears. I was told that inorder to look like wrestlers they take books and bang their ears until the swelling occurs.

Then, of course, you have something to read while getting drained at the local clinic.

...why on earth would you want a puckered hemmoridic monkey butt on the side of your head? you'll only live to regret it later, once formed its incredibly difficult to correct with surgery.

what i recommend, WEAR YOUR HEAD GEAR! you'll be glad you did!

You think the chicks dig a dude with an ear?

I've never been taken down by an ear. If I had a choice between big arms and veggi ear, I'll go with the big arms. Any body know where I can pick a pair up at?

There were some pretty impressive ears in LV. I don't think I'd wish for a pair though. I remember in high school Coach Hemmerling taking me to the ER and having the gunk sucked out with a syringe. Not fun. They probably have better ways now though. I used to be kind of sensitive about the ears but over the years I've learned to have some fun with them. When I was a Captain with the FD we used to play a little game with the new rookies. On their first day one of the senior FFs would tell them, "When you meet the Captain, whatever you do, don't stare at his ears. They were burned in a fire and he's pretty sensitive about them." Of course then they couldn't help but check out the ears. When I caught them staring I'd pretend to be pretty upset. The look on their faces was priceless! Hey, we had to do something for fun between calls. rh

Nope, they still use the syringe. And it still hurts.

Does anyone remember Dallas Browning's ear a couple of years ago at state??

gross.

Yes, it was really, really icky.

I like my cawly-flawah eahs. Whenever I'm at a party, someone is always like "oh hey, you have cauliflower ears. Where did you wrestle?" And then we can play the old, "Do you know..." game about former wrestlers from his/her hometown.

And Jhris' mom thinks it's sexy.

How about a tattoo in the ear? I would have to decide whether to get a straight black Tribal somethingorother or get a colorful somethingorother. I would have to be careful about colors and a possible clash with shirts on my wardrobe. Thanks for noticing Martialartswrestler.

Thoughts?

My mom thinks that it's ugly. She told me. It's your fat gut and stretch marks that she fancies.

Cauliflower ear is tiiizzit. I always get random girls touching my deformed ear. Its a great way to have a female touch an arrogoneous zone of ur body....
