Big League Wiffle Ball will hold its first tournament tomorrow in Scottsdale, Arizona.
BLW has 10 franchises and an eclectic crop of names among the ownership ranks — actor Kevin Costner, entrepreneur Gary Vaynerchuk, content creators Dude Perfect, Minnesota Timberwolves co-owner Marc Lasry and Philadelphia 76ers co-owner David Adelman.
BLW started in 2020 when Logan Rose, then 13, began hosting backyard tournaments. Amateur teams will compete against the pro clubs in the tournaments.
BLW is expected to host future tournaments in Chicago, Dallas and Los Angeles before a planned World Series event next spring.
My brother and I invented “Waffle Ball” roughly 22 years ago in the basement of our New Jersey home.
You kneeled/sat on the rug and tried to punch a ball past each other and into the goal — either an open doorway or a cardboard box, depending on which side of the field you chose.
Anyway, I’ve always thought we had something. Any interested billionaires know where to find me.
