Here's Friday's final question:
How much does New York's Waterford crystal ball weigh?
Addendum:
The correct answer is, 11,875 lbs. Here's why: In
honor of the Ball Drop's 100th anniversary, a fifth Ball debuted for New Year's
Eve 2008. Once again manufactured by Waterford Crystal with a diameter of 6 ft,
but weighing 1,212 pounds. For New Year's Eve 2009, the simplistic design of the Centennial Ball was
maintained, but doubled in size with a new sixth Ball. The sixth Ball is 12 feet in
diameter with a weight of 11,875 pounds.
