So in conjunction with this big day, the good people at Sports Town by World of Sports had a 30% storewide sales at Westgate last Friday.
I know it's over but you do not need to go all boohoohoo just because you do not get to benefit from the sale. The good news is that the exhibition of the signatured balls will still be there until 13 March! If you are too lazy for Journey to the West, you can check out the pictures I've taken but I'm telling you the real things are way cooler!
