[edit] Stadium buddy

Stadium buddy (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

seems to be an advertisement. I could not locate any independant references for it. Justinmeister 21:44, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete, spam. hateless 00:18, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete. I know Rick Reilly mentioned it in a column, but that doesn't make it notable, nor does its ~600 Google hits. SliceNYC 22:56, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment If kept, move to a more medical term like "external male catheter" and then redirect as needed. My vote is still delete, though. SliceNYC 03:29, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep. I've been using this as a generic term throughout Canada for a decade, as have my pilot friends and my wheelchair-riding friends. I do not believe this to be a brand name. Google will return an additional 500 or so hits if searching for the "external male catheter" technical name, or the other slang term "texas condom". Russ0035 02:18, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment To clarify, the Stadium Buddy is the complete apparatus, including the tubing and collection bag; not just the Texas Condom. The PZL_PW-5 that I fly has a tube under the seat cusion that lets me use just the Texas Condom and not the complete Stadium Buddy. Russ0035 04:46, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
    • Comment And in the interests of full disclosure, I made the edits to this page on 2 Nov. I've signed up for a wikipedia account because, while I was comfortable making edits anonymously, I am not comfortable with defending them anonymously. I have never heard of a Stadium Buddy for sale, they're something I've assembled after buying the components in medical stores. (Interestingly, Texas Condoms are sized in colours instead of "S/M/L/XL" so that you don't have to ask for a Small one at the counter. I'm a size Blue.) Really old pilots told me what store to go to and what to ask for in parts, but they always called it a Stadium Buddy. Cheers, Russ0035 05:08, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep per Russ0035. It seems like a good-faith article (stub) and contains no links to places the thing can be bought, nor does it seem to be an actual trademark or brand-name. --Arvedui 02:25, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep per Russ0035. I agree that it looks like a good-faith stub and it appears to be pretty common among small aircraft flyers. Agne 00:14, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
