Rubber Band Ball!

[Woah]

I dont know if this is much of a hobby but more of a collection... So ive been collecting rubberbands since i was 4 gradually over time. Ive been making them into a rubber band ball. it is 43 inches ( or 110 cm for everyone else in the world) in diameter and weighs 40 pounds ( or about 18 kilos).maybe one day ill have a record for the biggest balls :D
Any one else have some sort of collection?

That is cool beyond words. I have a collection of empty beer and cider bottles.... *Hangs head in shame* xD

[Woah]

I just tie them tohether to make larger rubberbands.

That is freakin' impressive! Just one question. Does it still bounce?

[MERRD]

My dad has an enormous coin collection (almost every coin of every nation)
My mom collects wine.. (Yes..)
And I have a collection of soccer jerseys.

So i just said that it doesnt bounce very high. I havent bounced it in a while so i took it onto the patio in the back. when i bounced  it, a paver came loose and is now slanted. woops! hope no one trips over that and i hope my parents dont notice

I used to collect beer caps, but it got too big.

I figured I'd stop collecting or stop drinking.

No  more beer caps

I"m glad you picked the right solution.

Okay - in Holland just a few weeks ago - Albert Heijn (the biggest supermarket in Holland) had a special marketing stunt; whenever you spend more then €10 on groceries you get a pack with 5 football stickers. Yes. It's very stupid, but you wouldn't believe how crazy that got! After one week of the stunt there was already a kid beaten up for his stickers etc. , and 50 kids were standing in front of each supermarket in order to get the stickers of older people who didn't want them. But, they did want them. Everybody wanted the stickers.... how Dutch. It's free, so everybody want's it.

I have them too though
