A few years ago, Pat purchased some Temple themed Christmas balls for my parents' tree. When Dan came home from school that semester, he thrust a box of ornaments into Mom's hands and announced, "I heard there would be Temple balls on the tree this year."
Over the years, there would be a contest to see which college made it higher on the tree... Temple or Penn State. (I don't think there are any Drexel ornaments on the tree.)
This year, I made a set of Macstrong balls and will be giving them as gifts. I think he'd be pleased to know that there was a little bit of him at every house. And I can only imagine the off colored jokes that he'd be making about balls.
Merry Christmas, Buddy.
