Cricket Spitting is a sport wherein contestants place a dead cricket in their mouth, and then spit it as far as they can. The contestant who can spit the cricket the farthest is declared the winner.
Cricket Spitting was developed in 1996 by entomologist Tom Turpin at Purdue University in West Lafayette, IN as a competition for their annual Bug Bowl event, which brings over 30,000 people per year to their campus for a series of insect-related events and competitions.
