Thanks for all of the submissions. I’m sorry to report that the Spikeball Community’s Not-So-National-Geographic skills leave a lot to be desired. No one named the right location. Since most of you are most likely used to consolation prizes… And the winner is… Actually we’ve got 2 winners: Kevin Luo of Northwestern U and Blake Rosekrans of Milwaukee, WI!!!
