Anyone else remember these? Somehow they came up in a conversation at work and no one believed me that they existed... and on top of it no one wanted to google Ballzac... understandbly..

How on earth can your marketing department come up with this blurb to sell a product:

"Balzac is a whole new ball game! It's big, it's light, it's not like anything you've ever played with before! Balzac is a balloon in a sack. It's like a ball, but it's so much more!"

Yep, I remember those. I vaguely remember snippets of the commercials, too, but nothing for more than a second or two.

Balzac, it's where it's at!

At least I think that's what the commercial said.
