Record Ball
Today is the one day a year where we defy physics, and only have a 23 hour day. At least some of us have a 23 hour day. My grandmother use to refer to Daylight Savings Time as Daylight Stupid Time. With that thought bouncing around my head, I came up with a totally worthless site, since it will only be here for a shorter time period.
Actually, it isn’t a totally worthless site. It has some very interesting things to do on it. This site is the home of the World’s Largest Rubber Band Ball. Here you can read about the 3,120 pound ball, and see where it has been featured in the media. It has been on the Howard Stern Show, Regis and Kathy Lee, and Ripley’s Believe It Or Not. It also has a place in the Guinness Book of World Records. There is a picture of it here, along with the vital statistics of it.
The author is proud of his accomplishment, as well he should be. But he also offers to show you how to create your own rubber band ball, and, if you are so driven, you can beat his record (his only took 5 years 2 months). The Warp-o-Meter gives this site a 7.5, since the subject matter is really stretched to fit the site. So if you have some time on your hands, and an extra $14.99, then you too could find yourself on our site.
