101 Uses of Wiffle Balls and Bats
Through the years we've had numerous customers tell us interesting uses of WiffleŽ balls and bats.
While we don't have listed 101 uses of Wiffle balls and bats, I'm sure if we put our heads together we can come up with at least that amount. Here is a sampling of some of the more intriguing ones.
- A down pillow company uses the bats to flatten out pillows
- Some peach farmers use the bats to poke at branches and knock out loose fruit
- Golf courses and driving ranges have used the Wiffle Softballs to mark the tees, hazards and other areas.
- Horse trainers have use the bats to keep horses in line with the wiff sound that comes from the bat
- Getting married? Newly weds have personalized Wiffle balls with their name and wedding date and gave them out as wedding favors!
- Wiffle balls have been used as Christmas tree ornaments and holiday decorations. See our December 2010 Newsletter for pictures from the WiffleKing's family.
- Racecar teams have used Wiffle balls to reduce sloshing in the gas tank
- Hog farmers have filled the bats with bb gun pellets and rattle them to lead the pigs about.
- It also has been reported that the Wiffle balls without holes were in the plans for an alternative flotation devise on a home-made submarine.
Do you have an interesting use for a Wiffle ball or bat? Let us know and we'll share it in a future edition of our newsletter.
