Why would LSU not allow them to sell the stands?

I was told by a salesperson at Lee Michaels; maybe licensing issues.

I will take one of those PMs please?

yea, I'd like one too

One recommendation: you can put on 3 oe 4 small rounded clear sticky plastic tabs (that you can get from HomeDepot or Lowe's )at the bottom of the crystal ball, and the ball should sit nice and firm on that shallow cutout groove on the top of the stand.

Does the ball sprial when you throw it? :grin:

I didn't try that yet, I'll try today and let you know. :wink:

I think I have some of them, I'll try and see if it helps.
