For all you football fans. Bet you didn't know this. Hooray for Wilson !!! All NFL Wilson footballs are made in a small assemply plant in Ada, Ohio U.S.A. Note their employees longevity at this plant.



Footballs are their only product, lifetime employment for maybe 40-50 people, $25 million annual revenue, low overhead and High Quality!

Hmmm, I always thought that footballs were made of PigSkin not Cowhide leather? I know that the original footballs used to be made of inflated pigs blatters, and that has changed over the years.... Oh well, I guess that is just another myth busted:sad:

I didnt watch it, but. This was in the news awhile back. The article was about. It is one of the few private American companys left. That do well.

Didn't know all that. Very cool to watch the manufacture of the balls. Always wondered. Bob
