Balls Deep (North Shore, MA)
Started in 2001 by Marc, Chris & Matt Griffin, the Balls Deep crew have replaced their parent's manicured back yard with a marked wiffle ball field. Although the front page is not updated often (we've been getting flipped off by Mark "Morey" Morreales since we linked them), the new Photo Gallery of their field is a plus.
Fat Bastard Wiffle Ball (Rockford, MI)
What started off as the Bad Beer World Series between local softball buddies has turned into the internationally known Fat Bastard Wiffle Ball Tournament. We consider Dave "X-Man" Ringler, Eric "E-Z E" Albertson and their gang as part of our extended family. The site is loaded with witty humor, crazy but true stories, wiffle in Iraq and a Hall of Fame! Held every August in Ringler's back and front yard, the "Fattie" raises thousands of dollars for charity.
Turner Wiffle Ball (Agawam, MA)
Playing wiffleball since 1998, this league has alot going on. With three different leagues and many wifflers, this is where we'd like to be some day. They host a two day tournament in August that looks like it is worth the trip. We imagine nobody dares throw inside to John Matte based on the amount of HR's he hits...oh yeah and the fact that the guy is a MONSTER!
W.A.Y.L.A.C. WIFFLEBALL (Sycamore, IL)
Wiffle 4 Autism (Indianapolis, IN)
Although the site is hard to read with it's current background graphics, Dan Martz gets an "A" in our book for raising money for charity through wiffle ball! Last year his tournament raised $2,300.00 for Autism Awareness in his community.
Wiffle Ball, Inc. (Shelton, CT)
The official site of the company that created all this madness in 1953! Find everything from the game's history to wiffle neck wear...yes, neck wear!

Suitcase 72 gets the distinct honor of being the first ever Windy City link that is not wiffle ball related. Started by childhood friends Henry & Eddie Jeffries (no relation), this band guaranties "samsonite-solid performance." Their name comes from a model of an electric piano made by Fender Rhodes. Thier site offers free samples of some of their songs that you can listen to before you make the commitment of booking them for your next shindig. We are not music critics by far but if you want to feel better about your life through someone else's failures, listen to "Angels Kicking Stones." Oh, that poor Charlotte! Most who have hit a dry spell on the singles scene will relate better to "Drunk Girl," however. It has an upbeat B52's tempo that promotes spreading love and designated driving (did we just mention the B52's on our site???). Thanks for only describing her hair and eyes Suitcase 72 because we all know what is left standing at last call! We are told that Ft. Phinbone Apache team doctor Bill Giricz is in the band but there is no mention of him in the bio. But we see him in the band's picture under "The Band." Funny thing is, he looks like half the man we knew in our youth...Don't be disgruntled by the difficultness in "prior membership" on this site because it gets easier when you have joined (it's free!). Where are the bio's of the band members though? We want to know things like where they are from and what they do to put food on the table.
The Officer Down Memorial Page
The New 30s Hegewisch Baseball League
Former wiffler (1981ish) Jimmy Green turned musician plays the acoustic guitar in a most untraditional fashion. This site, black background with "green" border (how witty), allows you to sample his music and watch how "he attacks his instrument with both hands" (seriously, it says that!). Although he does not dance much, watching him perform "Firefly" is quite entertaining. This 2004 "Grand's Guitar Idol" Champion is also known for having the longest foulball in league history (MLWBL). The site is very easy to navigate and well put together. If you are in the mood for some great, entertaining guitar playing or are in need for some Sassy Endorphin thongs, then log on to this site!
