Handed a GEM today
« on: September 16, 2006, 01:35:29 PM »
So I subbed tonight in a mixed league and one of the guys on the team had a ball he was going to leave on the rack.

"I have a ball in the car if you want it...if not I'm just going to leave it on the rack."

I told him I'd take a look....so after we went to his car..he handed it to me...A Cherry Bomb lol.

I'm not too familiar with Lane 1...so I went to the site and saw that it's retired...

I took pics of it, but PUTFILE won't work..so I can't upload them to show...is this a good ball, rare ball, anything....please let me know

It's actually in pretty good shape...might need a small resurface job, but over all not too bad.  I'm actually really irritated that putfile isn't working.  What other photo sharing sites can I use?

image trash is free and dosent require an account, and if you do want an account photobucket is great, free, and lets you get pretty good size files.

the regular cherry has alot more red in it. That one you have is a darker red and a blend of black, so thats why it is the BCB.

If you are interested in selling it or trading it for another ball, please message me.

Nice grab you got buddy.
