I went home got the same ball as he had that I bought on ebay and showed him. Karma has whiplash, we never see much of each other these days and I know he still thought I was full of crap. Moral of story for next time:
WOW that is a GREAT BALL you lucky dog!

Grandfathers and uncles are the biggest liars  .
