Does this mean the end of the planet line? I have to guess so since they've been through all the legitimate planet names except Uranus, which I seriously doubt they'll touch...

They don't have a hair on their azz if they don't come out with the Uranus.

I think it's great that they're stopping the planet line before the Uranus.
I can just hear it now at the pro shop. "How do you want Uranus drilled?" or "I can always plug and re-drill Uranus if you like."

The best slug and grip combo would be a brown slug and pink grips for the Uranus.

To work optimally, you'll need more oil for Uranus.

Care and maintenance of Uranus:
1. Make sure to regularly clean Uranus as dirt will clog up the pores. You may want to give Uranus a hot water bath on occassion.
2. Don't expose Uranus to extreme hot or cold temperatures as doing so increases the chance of cracking.

If they did make the Uranus how many of you would blow in to the thumb hole of Uranus and what fragrance should Storm put on it?

I can't wait to put 3 fingers in Uranus
--------------------

-
Uranus isn't even close to the hole, get some more fingers into it.
-
Polishing Uranus will make it go longer. Sorry, couldn't resist.
-
i can't believe Uranus has no backend, mines got tons.

Uranus STINKS! where did you get that piece of sh!t.

i can't believe you put Uranus right to the nose.
-
I recently added the new Roto-Grip ball to my line up. My new RotoGrip stayed in my bag one night, so while cleaning up after league, I placed my balls next to Uranus.
Uranus is just so tight on my fingers. That's why I didn't use it.

If this ball does come out, I'll work at a pro shop for the day, for free. Especially since I know all the customers love smelling the Storm balls.
"Ooh, what's this one, and why does it smell like shame after a long night of drinking? Possibly the left over scent of a confused young man."
"Why, that's Uranus. The ball personalizes its smell to the most recent activity that was done with yours!"

I think the Uranus would be a good ball for people like me. I tend to come up the back of it.

I love Uranus so much that I have a another one all ready after the 1st gets worn out.
I had to drill an extra hole in Uranus to make it legal.

3 holes of fun!!

Roger, if you decided to come out with this ball, make sure it has no pearl and has plenty of surface OOB - I would hate to hear this ball described as being "squirty".

Just make sure you get it drilled correctly. I would hate for any of you to get your thumb stuck in Uranus.

If you put your thumb in first, you'll get a cleaner release from Uranus.
-
First of all, has Venus, Earth or Jupiter been out yet?
I say come out with the Uranus. Most people don't pronounce it anyways since everyone makes a joke out of it. It's correctly pronounced "Yur-ein-us".
-
1.Instead of the olive drab Uranus, how about a clear Uranus?????
2. If you buy one,would you return it if Uranus develops a crack in it????

What does the Star Ship Enterprise and toilet paper have in common? They circle around Uranus wiping out Klingons. (Old, but still great!)
So what can we expect from this ball color wise? If it has a lot of backend, and it's grey, we'll nickname it "The Elephant".

Come on, Uranus on an already established planet line of balls would be the single easiest/greatest marketing idea ever. I would be able to sell them by the case load. A lower line ball like that for younger crowd of bowlers. It would just be too easy.

I do get a lot of misdrilled balls from others around the city.
I'd probably have to plug Uranus

The Venus is available in the US...I know several people that have them...and the earth...hrmm, how about the golden globe spare ball? They haven't made Jupiter, Mercury, or Uranus.
