Marc Ecko Loves Democracy
September 17th, 2007 by Phil
We all have our own opinion on how Barry Bonds home run record should be remembered in history, but designer Marc Ecko has decided to take a more democratic approach to solving the controversy. After purchasing the record-setting ball at a Sotheby’s auction for $750,000, Ecko started this website asking the public to vote on the balls ultimate fate.
The three options are:
A. Bestow It — give the ball to Cooperstown.
B. Brand It — brand the ball with an asterisk, then give it Cooperstown.
C. Banish It — literally launch the ball into space.
You can vote here.

I hear that the asterisk choice won. Is that correct?
