Whether you're old school or your just looking to have a make-out sesh with your partner, we found the best place to do play tonsil hockey in Iowa. Actually, this place was named one of the best places to face suck in the country.

Best Place To Tongue Wrestle In Iowa

Instead of using the term 'make-out,' I'll us tongue wrestle. I mean, we are talking about the best place to do that in Iowa.
