In great danger of leaping across tangents I happened to watch some of the Nadal v Federer epic yesterday and thought to myself – what happens with all those used balls. I mean isn’t Rafa’s carbon footprint big enough from jetting around the world all year without demanding new balls every nine games.
I couldn’t manage to find anything vaguely useful made from standard tennis balls but the guys at Refinding.com in Kansas City do a funky looking wallet made from giant recycled tennis balls. That is if you can resist that 80’s tinged wallets made of trading cards.
I couldn’t decide if the Dukes of Hazard had more street cred than the incredible hulk. Weirdly this wouldn’t even have been a challenging question 25 years ago.
