The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.

What About Urge Overkill's 76 Ball Connection?

Went to the group's website, and found that their logo is based on our 76 ball. It also has an orange ball with the letters UO in black and outlined in white.

The group formed at Northwestern University in 1986 and is based out of Chicago. They had a lot of publicity with their cover of Neil Diamond's "Girl, You'll be a Woman Soon" which was featured in the 1994 movie "Pulp Fiction."

Some of the lyrics of their "76 Ball" song from 1990's "Americruiser" (good car name) album:

On a night like this I found Miss Celine
On a freeway to bliss it's a guarantee
Take a ride like this.
I've got you what you need.
Guaranteed.

There's a chill in the spine now.
76 ball.
It's all turning round
I hope I'm coming down

Now, You Know the Connection. --RoadDog
