Drunkenness = testicle pain?

[Colophon]

This is kind of a weird one, so bear with me. For as long as I can remember (well, since I started drinking alcohol), I've noticed a weird sensation associated with being drunk. When I'm really quite drunk, but not necessarily quite at the room-spinning stage, and sitting down, I often get a kind of pain/ache in my testicles. It's not a constant thing, it kind of appears and disappears in waves, kind of like the pit-of-the-stomach feeling you can get when driving over a humpbacked bridge.

So, two questions:
1) Does anyone else get this, or am I a freak?
2) What could cause it?

2) Blue balls?

3) Being too forward with the knee-jerk crowd?

4) Varicose veins?

Perhaps its a confused bladder response, where you are holding it in and simultaneously pulling in the muscles that also control your testis.
