Guess the seller had a brainstorm defrosting his freezer, then.

I'll bet the high bidder was from Arizona...

I pity the foo's who never saw snow in their life.

[Corsair]

There's a sucker born every minute.

DAMMIT

Attention All HLP Member!

I am Selling Authentic New York Snowballs! $1.00 Each!

The Snow is white! Really! No that's not the salt from the roads, either!

And if you have a sweet juice, you can pour it over the snowball and make a desert treat!

Don't the canucks eat snow with maple syrup? Or is that just propaganda...

I've heard that, too.  We here in Merkinland prefer sweet syruppy drink mixes... Like Grape kool-aid with 1/4th the recomended amount of water added.

[WeatherOp]

Howabout some good Bama mud?  Will make it time someone bids.

Man, how can people be so stupid? Maybe I should build my on spacecraft, go to the moon, bring back some moon rocks and sell e'm for $100,000 dollars a piece.

[Unknown Target]

That's really incredible.
I've personally only seen snow twice in my life...once when I was about 2, and the other when I was about 12.
So consider you guys lucky! Lol

[Taristin]

UT, I'll mail you some! I've plenty! I'll even get it packed in Dry Ice!  But you pay for the shipping!

[Falcon]

I just walked for an hour through wet, slushy snow. By the time I got home, my feet were literally dripping and wet up to my knees.

Yeah, I'm real lucky.

[oohal]

heh i've never seen snow but i live in a subtropical area so it ain't gonna snow here unless theres another ice age, but i sure as hell wouldn't pay 20k for a snowball

[Clave]

I like snow - in moderation, but that is somewhat overpriced.  I live on a small hill which is always 3 degrees or so colder than the rest of the suburbs, which improves the snow possibilities no end...

Super-condensed syrup.  It's expensive as anything to do it, though, so it is really rare to have.  Last time I had it I was 7 years old when I had a class trip to a sugar bush (place where they tap a bunch of maples to collect the sap for syrup) to learn how they made the stuff.

Except sunny, natch.

Wouldn't sublimation eventually occur, and the snowball disappear?
