Factoids from Wally

Since 1930:

  • More balls have been hit against the walls than there are dollar bills in the national debt.

  • More balls have been served to an opponent than burgers have been served at McDonald's. Billions served!

  • Enough people have played at Garfield's Historic Paddleball Courts to fill the Orange Bowl at a New Year's Day football game.

  • More disputes over calls (good or bad/in or out) than there are grains of sand on Hollywood Beach.

  • More plywood has been used to make paddles than Home Depot sells because of hurricane threats.

  • More tournaments have been held at the courts than at the world's oldest golf course, the Royal & Ancient in Scotland.
