Stranger Than Fiction - Chuck Palahniuk

That’s just from getting in there and brawling, getting in there and getting your ears rubbed a lot,” says William R. Groves. “What happens is, as you rub and rub and rub, the abrasion, the cartilage separates from the skin, and in that separation, blood and fluid fills it up. After a while, it drains out, but the calcium will solidify on the cartilage. A lot of wrestlers see it as a kind of badge of wrestling, a necessary badge of wrestling.”

Sean Harrington says, “It’s like a stalactite or something. Slowly blood trickles in there and hardens. It gets injured again, and a little more blood trickles in and hardens, and slowly it’s unrecognizable anymore. Some guys definitely feel that way, that it’s a badge of courage, a badge of honor.”

“I think it’s very much a badge of honor,” says Sara Levin. “You know somebody’s a wrestler. It’s another one of those things that makes someone else an equal to you. And a bond. Part of the grind. The ears. It’s just part of the game. It’s the nature of the sport, like scars, battle wounds.”

Petersen says, “I had one teammate who, before he’d go to bed, he’d sit there and punch his ear for ten minutes. He wanted cauliflower ear so bad.”
