Rolling Ball Bag

Bell leather saddle bag with enough strap to sling on frame or handlebar.
Velcro seals the deal for $20 at Walmart.

Can I assume I'm not the only one that grinned at "ball bag"?

Yeah, but, ah, the bag holds a softball and a hardball.
Geez, I hope I don't start a stampede to Walmart.

The tag stated leather cruiser saddle bag.
Tasted like brown shoe leather...Woof.
Even if it is faux leather, it still has the word leather in it.

So I see you, too, ponder why the tomato has never really taken off as a hand fruit.

I find that tomatoes keep well and don't bruise too easily in the cool weather.

I've seriously contemplated buying that and using it as a handlebar bag...along with it's super-comfy looking saddle. Perhaps on my ghetto cruiser.

Some one threw me the baseball as a gift.
I added the tomatoe for ballast
Didn't want the ball rollling around in the bag.

Why do you need a bag to transport balls?

The balls don't fit in my pockets.
I used the balls to show relative interior space of the bag.
