Brand: Sportcraft

A long long time ago in a factory far, far away….

 
Ok, it wasn’t that far away, it was still on earth.  Some ping pong balls were formed.  One of the ping pong balls would grow up to be Silas.  At first Silas’ life seemed normal, he played ping pong and was batted around by two adorable cats.  As always happens with ping pong balls, he got dented and relegated to the back corners of the garage.
 


The one day he was found and his pictures was Tweeted by none other than Wil Wheaton.  This made him famous.  Again people wanted Silas, he was listed as an auction on eBay to find a new family.  People really wanted Silas and soon it became apparent that not everyone had a shot at owning Silas.
 


Silas’s half-brother, Bob, heard about this and wanted to make sure that everyone had a chance to own a dented ping pong ball.  Since they are half-brothers they look rather similar.  And so Bob is being placed on eBay to help ensure that one more family might get to enjoy owning a crappy dented ping pong ball.
 


Like Silas, Bob was a little different.  He never got a chance to play ping pong.  He just enjoyed the fact that he brought happiness to the kitty of the house.  He spent most of his free time under the couch watching SciFi movies like Star Trek and Firefly.
 


IMPORTANT DISCLAIMERS: THIS PING PONG BALL WILL NOT OPERATE IN A GAME OF PING PONG.  THIS BALL WILL NOT BOUNCE OR RESPOND TO A PADDLE IN THE USUAL MANNER.  THIS BALL HAS NOT BEEN SEEN OR TOUCHED OR OWNED BY WIL WHEATON.
 


This ping pong ball is probably worth less than the cost of shipping. You will probably laugh a great deal when you place your bid, but this auction is mainly for those who wish to own a dented ping pong ball but can’t afford the Twitter famous Silas.
 


Just with the real Silas this ping pong ball will be placed into a cozy padded envelope, perfectly suitable for opening, and it will be shipped to the buyer's address.  You will open it, and you will probably say to yourself, “Well, crap. Now I have this crappy replica of a crappy ping pong ball that I can’t even at least say Wil Wheaton touched in.”
 


Bob main goal is just to help out his big brother Silas, so all money raised in this auction will be donated to the same Pasadena Humane Society’s Wiggle Waggle Walk, specifically to Team Wheaton.
 


Shipping is free, because it seems silly for you to pay more in shipping than Bob is worth.  Please give him a good home.
