I am not trying to jinx anyone.. But I was thinking about this on my way to Reno. I never had this happen nor have I ever heard of this happening BUT.. With the new balls today I know they have a tendency to crack with temperature change... On the 5 hour plane ride to Reno I got to thinking.. With the balls going under the airplane and how cold it is under the plane what happens if you get out there and your ball is cracked??? Would one of the stands at the stadium replace it? Is the airline at fault?? What would happen? I know alot of the guys we went with took only 3 balls and if this would happen they would be in some serious trouble.  I had my carryon bag on the floor of the plane with a ball in and when I got off the ball was like Ice so I know its even colder under the plane.
