A 99 year old legend from Mexico has passed away,
but luckily her unique dying wish has been met.
And what is that wish?
Well, she wanted to have a giant penis installed on top of her grave.
And yes, she got that wish.
So, her family unveiled the completed monument,
a 5-and-a-half foot tall penis weighing nearly 600
pounds mounted on her tomb at a cemetery in Mexico this
past weekend as recognition of her love and joy for life.
And you know, human life does need some, Some
human body parts involved, not necessarily 100% of the time, but most of the time.
And so if you're wondering what this monument looked like, we had to
blur a portion of it, but, my God, that is way, way more graphic than I thought.
>> [LAUGH] It's amazing.
[SOUND] I thought that we were going a little more subtle with this.
>> No, no, we're going [INAUDIBLE].
There's the ball skin.
>> Balls [INAUDIBLE].
>> A little too realistic, man.
>> Those are testis, yeah.
>> You guys could have picked one part to blur out,
you could have done the balls and then just the other part.
>> Just the tip, just the tip.
>> [LAUGH] That is a legendary woman.
>> Yep, Dona Cata, she was lovingly known throughout this small
town of Misantla, in the Eastern state of Veracruz.
She had a particular affinity for penises, as you can tell, and
what she believed they represented.
So this is where it gets interesting, let's go to this video.
This is the woman who wanted the giant penis statue on top of her-
>> The Samantha Jones of Mexico.
>> There she goes, she's so fun.
>> My God, I love her.
>> So she's dancing in that wheelchair for
those of you listening to the audio version of the show.
She always said, in the Mexican sense, that we were vergas.
And vergas can be a derogatory term in Spanish,
particularly in Mexico, but it can also be used as a compliment.
like if something is vergas, it's cool or badass.
So it's kinda got a little bit of a double meaning there.
Dona Cata often used it with that sort of colloquial pride.
She instilled the message to her children, grandchildren and
great grandchildren that they were vergus and could accomplish whatever they wanted,
especially the women in a country style steeped in machismo, said Mota Limon.
Many members of the family went on to wide ranging careers.
And over the years, by the way,
she had told her family that when she died she wanted her tomb adorned with a penis.
And her close ones thought it to just be banter,
they didn't take her seriously at first.
But before she died, one family member asked about the longstanding request,
she told me that it was her desire so that no one would forget her.
I mean, this is unforgettable, and
that everything we loved about her would be remembered more easily, he said.
After Dona Cata's death on January 20th, 2021,
we talked as a family and decided to make her dream come true.
And so her family honored that wish and
here's a look at the unveiling of the giant penis.
Lots of fun, here it is.
This happened, this is a real story.
>> [APPLAUSE] >> This is a real story, it is amazing.
And let me just say, when I think about the general population in Mexico,
we're talking about some pretty religious individuals, right?
And so it really takes balls to do what she did, and
what her family did for her, in erecting this massive penis statue.
>> It must have been hard.
Very hard, so hard.
[SOUND] But they've overcome, and did what they needed to do to honor her.
>> And they built it, and it went all the way to completion.
>> What I love about this and what's so heartwarming,
is that her family had a strong love for her, it wasn't flaccid,
it wasn't impotent, just real, strong, hard love for their grandmother.
>> The kind of love that penetrates.
[SOUND] >> [LAUGH] Well played Emma Vigeland,
that's why they pay you the big bucks.
>> Yeah.
>> That was excellent.
Anyway, whatever, it's fun, it's fun, I love saucy women, I love strong women,
they freaking fire me up.
So if she likes giant penises, go for it girl, go for it, do you boo.
I'm really happy to see that she got what she wanted.
>> I know, and
I'm bummed that Kim Cattrall is out on Sex in The City Sequels.
I mean, good for her, but this would be totally
a storyline that they could copy for >> 100%.
