Thankkkkk you. I've been feeling like I'm the only one who was thinking this :/

A lot of things could fit around that tongue easily, mostly things with handles - suitcases, purses, laptop bags. Things could even be draped across it, like scarves and coats.
Though...assuming that is 1/4" Lexan, there aren't many things that could be draped/hung on it without it snapping.

I feel like the orientation that we've been given is the correct orientation for the piece in the game. The curve at the bottom might just be for some structural aspect. Just throwing that out there.

And for those talking about how things are going out of production after FIRST used them as game pieces - aren't the balls from 2006 still being made?
