New Ted Nugent Cologne Tested On ‘Every Goddamn Animal We Could Find’

ALPENA, MI—Ted Nugent held a press conference Monday to unveil his new signature fragrance “Heartland,” which the veteran rocker touted as the most extensively tested cologne in history. “We tested that sumbitch on ferrets, weasels, deer, elk, squirrels, bison, trout, crickets, gibbons, iguanas, donkeys, capybaras, koalas, hyenas, penguins, woodpeckers—every goddamn animal we could find,” Nugent said. “And, just to be extra-certain it was safe for consumer use, we injected it into a kitten’s bloodstream, sprayed it on otters with open wounds that we inflicted, and forced cows to drink it through their nose. We also squirted it in a duck’s eyes. Then we ran out of cologne and just started punching the duck.” The cologne, now available in stores, features an ivory bottle stopper and comes in a genuine tiger-skin pouch.
