Pool noodles, 2.5" hollow at http://www.nationaldiscountpoolsuppl...llounchai.html

Can anyone verify that these pool noodles (linked above) are exactly 2.5 inches in diameter?

My team gathered our own pool noodles for use. With the exception of one 8 sided noodle, all 12 or so noodles are 2.625 to 2.75 inches in diameter. This ended up being a problem for two reasons:
-FIRST probably wants them exactly 2.5" (I can't find info otherwise anywhere)
-I assumed they were 2.5", so I cut the denier fabric to fit 2.5" nicely. We have extra fabric, thankfully, but the cutting (and sewing the edges) isn't much fun.

My team is probably going to purchase new noodles online (they're not available locally in winter), but to be sure, we're checking beforehand.
