Countdown to Wifflefest - We are buying some balls

It is really hard to have a wiffleball game, even harder to have a Wifflefest without the appropriate quantity of balls on hand. Today, I am ordering 48 official wiffle balls from the Connecticut Store. The Connecticut Store is the official marketplace for all things wiffle.... bats, books, apparel, and balls.

Our family was able to the store last summer, on a trip to the east coast. Due to a three hour traffic jam in Rhode Island, we made it to the store after closing. We were able to peer into the windows to see the wiffleball making machine as well as a 1/2 complete crossword puzzle. Needless to say, it was the highlight of our trip.

The order will be placed in about an hour, and then the wiffle balls will be hand packaged into original wiffle ball boxes. After each ball is packaged individually, they will then be combined into a much larger brown box and shipped to my location. We will then keep them in a humidified chamber to preserve their perfection until Wifflefest, ensuring that each ball will be perfectly perfect in every way.
Like a newborn babe snatched from a mother's womb, so also the Justin Osborne All American Wifflefest's wiffleballs will be handled for the first time, without blemish, at Wifflefest. Past rumors of Justin Osborne actually creating his own wiffleballs with 'magic' are not completely true. This year we will have a pretend ball detector in place for each participant to pass through upon entering the Wifflefest grounds, ensuring that no off-branded ball makes it anywhere close to a field. Wifflefest is a gun free/drug free/fake wiffleball free zone. We have ordered 50 wiffleballs for this year's event.
