Dang they work those oldtimers hard.

So the ol' pigskin is made from cow hide! Consider me devastated!

Also, about what he says at the end, it would be kind of cool to watch football games knowing you were part of making the balls they're tossing around out there.

Good video. That guy that turns the footballs right-side-out is in great shape for his age. NTTAWWT.

Thanks for sharing that. The longevity there is unbelievable. What do you think salary is? $50,000.00/year, less?

Great video!!

And this is Deb. She's been here 58 years. And this is Peggy. She's been stuffing footballs for 37 years. And this is Sally Mae, she's been here since the beginning of time.

Not one of those old broads smiled.

After 1,000 years of molding balls(yeah, I said it), I'd wager the smiling got sweated out of ol' Etta Mae a loooooong time ago.
