Win A Set Of BuckyBalls By Leaving A Comment

By David Ponce

Update 2: Sorry guys, the promo code is “ohgiz” and not the one at the bottom of this article. 20% off!

We wrote about BuckyBalls a few days ago and the company got in touch, offering some sets as giveaways. If you don’t know, BuckyBalls are 216 tiny magnet balls that can be re-arranged in any number of ways. I’ve got mine on my desk right now, and they’re awesome!

We’ve got three up for grabs, and all you got to do is leave a comment on this post.

Yeah… entering is that simple. Winning is different, since we’ll choose winners not at random, but at our discretion. And by “our”, I mean my dictatorial opinion. It might be the most entertaining comments, or the most compelling, or the most creative… I’ll decide. In other words, earn your BuyckyBalls guys; it just takes a little comment.

Oh yeah, and enter once. Be nice. We’ll be checking.

Update: Oh yeah, guys, I almost forgot. If you don’t win, you can still be a winner by entering promo code “ohgizmo” and get 20% off your own set of BuckyBalls!

    I normally wouldn't jump in line to beg for a free give-away, but “I want one, I want one!” Seriously, those things look awesome. Unfortunately, unless I get them for free I highly doubt I will ever have any first hand experience with them. I guess I'm saying I'd love to have a set, BuckyBalls and bong rips seem like a great way to kill a few hours.

    Sincerely,

    P.S. OhGizmo is one of my favorite sites, right up there with Dark Roasted Blend, keep doing what you're doing.

    Yes, I apologize, I did notice the other references to the person behind the Bucky Ball after i had posted my comment.

    Perhaps you and I will be luck enough to win.

    i just HAVE to win!

  • spawnxd

    My life is just one of fore things boring, sad, morbid, or occasionally happy, that's why i have been able to count how many times I've actually won anything. 7, 7 is how many things I've won in my entire life. Would you be so kind as to make that number 8?

  • terrypescosolido

    “Bucky Balls” is also a chemistry term for a chemical structure that looks like a large soccer ball (relatively speaking, of course). My wife has a chemistry degree, and this would make an ideal present for her. Help a hubby score some marital brownie points!

  • zipo13

    216 balls?
    How many bucklys were hurt during the manufacturing of a single tube?

    Guessing 108 Bucklys

    Bucky Balls are so fun. My friend gave me a free pair cause he won some for a video contest. Its fun when you try to make shapes out of them like a cube, which isn’t hard but if you try to make a sphere. It takes me forever!

    by authoring an exquisitely
    well-crafted haiku entry.

    I showed my friend in my economics class at college the bucky balls video. I told him how cool it would be to play with them. He laughed and said, “I'd wanna make monkey.” haha

  • dabbith

    If only they were only soccer ball shaped like real buckyballs. They're not even superconducting like cesium doped buckeyballs. They may be better for your heatlh than real buckyballs though.

  • jaczor

    You can never have too many balls, that's why I want some BuckyBalls!
