Re: 2011 Red Herring #1

Given how cryptic these things have been in the past, here goes some speculating from a newbie on this board..........

I don't think the tennis ball is meant to be a direct clue to the game pieces or the field. That would be too easy. I am, however, intrigued by the "Penn" label since they could have chosen any manufacturer, so why this one?

How about the fact that the University of Pennsylvania (founded in 1740, so no anniversary there) was founded by Ben Franklin. Franklin Sports markets sporting goods equipment for hockey, baseball, and football to name a few.


This is as far as I can go, and still probably a reach for this early in the season.
