You guys, you can’t make this stuff up.

According to the UK’s Sunday Times, male residents in the village of Ringaskiddy, County Cork claim the fumes from the local Pfizer factory are arousing them. They’ve even got a little saying, “One whiff and you’re stiff.”1 (Turns out even though the “little blue pill” will soon be available over the counter in the UK, residents there won’t need to buy it!)

But it’s not just the human men. It’s man’s best friend as well!

Fiona Toomey, who was born in the village and used to work at the Pfizer factory said, “Even the dogs here have been known to walk around in a state of sexual excitement. I think that Viagra must have got into the water supply. I’m convinced that’s what happened at the very beginning before they were so closely regulated.” 1

Village dwellers even claim that people come to the village, maybe out of curiosity, but then never leave! Still, others say the village experienced a baby boom after Viagra production began at the local factory around 1998.

A Pfizer spokeswoman was quoted as saying, “Our manufacturing processes have always been highly sophisticated as well as highly regulated.”

Hmmm…the wives in town might disagree!
