Some poor schmuck will eventually spend all his comped Casino dollars on this ball and then find out it's worthless when he tries to turn it in to a real auction house and convert it into real dollars.
Reminds me of the "Pawn Stars" episode I saw last night.
Guy says he is absolutely convinced that the saddle he owns is the very saddle Kevin Costner sat in for the filming of "Dances With Wolves".
Why? The auction house guy he bought it from assured him that it was. Even when confronted with video proof to the contrary, he still held to the story it was Kevin Costner's saddle.
These are the people who keep Coach's Corner in business.
