Egg Balls
"Say, Bernie," you silently exclaim, "how did you ever manage to find such a cool and clearly obscure sport as New Zealand GolfCross?"
Thanks for asking. It was one of those amazingly rewarding surprises that make this whole blogging thing pay-off, in a conceptual, spiritual kind of way.
I had been thinking about Volleyball a lot, and wondering if maybe a new kind of ball would result in making the game new enough to bring more fun for more people. I was thinking of a cylindrical ball, actually, but when I was in Pennsylvania at my friend Bill's gym, I saw these large, oval, exercise balls. And decided that maybe one of these would work. So, I Googled my way towards "oval balls" and finally found these Egg Balls on the web.In the very same listing, I found the story about New Zealand GolfCross, and once again, history was made. Or something remarkably like that.
