For just 15-bucks at Wal-Mart, you can get yourself a raquet and tennis balls and go play free Ashland tennis on a Tuesday or something, like you are the owner of the great big wool mill........is this a great country or what?

That's great, but where were the tennis raquets and balls made-USA or elsewhere?
