Any leads on somewhere/someone who can paint on a football?

Ok, here's the deal. I got a football from our game last Saturday ... the one that scored the touchdown that gave us the state title.

I'd like to get it painted, you know "Lifegate State Champs 2012" or something like that.

Tried the art teacher. She doesn't want to risk ruining the thing.

Any other ideas or anyone with experience doing this? I know I can't (I was kicked out of painting three weeks into kindergarten ... has ruined my life since, but I digress...).

Drop me an e-mail at lifegatesports -at- hotmail.com . Thanks!

Dear John, at the risk of being called a smarta$$, have you Googled that?

Yes, smokey, you are at the risk of the above.

And yes, I did. But you obviously did better than I.

Which isn't a difficult task, by the way.
 
Have you tried any of the sports collectible shops in San Antonio? I think there is a coach's wife here that can do it if all else fails.
 
Try a sign painter.
(That sounds familiar)
If all you want is lettering
and some paint that lasts.
They have a very steady hand.

Aren't you down by Austin?
How come you haven't tried
one of the zillion tattoo parlours?
You think those cats can't draw?

(When our 4 yr. old wanted her ears pierced
I kept teasing her about going to the tat place
to get them done.
She opted for Claire's at the mall.
How boring is that?)

Y'all forgot Mr Lifegate is a Jr. Associate member of the Illuminati. He's gonna be POed at y'all for hijacking his thread.

Excuse me.

A "Jr. Associate member of the Illuminati," why I should smote you to the ground with such blasphemy!

I am a full member of the Illuminati (or full of it, ain't sure what the official title that our Great Benefactor actually bestows nowadays) everywhere I go. Well, except at home, where She Who Must Be Obeyed has informed me that I am to tell you all that I am the Master of our Home.

Did find a source to paint the football. Thanks to all who had ideas...and even possible solutions.
 
I know someone but he lives in Houston. http://enhancedairbyverrick.com/

He can do amazing things with the biggest of items and the very smallest of things. The detail is incredible on his work...just don't let some of the themes scare you off. LOL I know he's done basketballs before.

Anyways, if you decide to try him, be sure to tell him Lori Falcon sent you. (he's familia)

Don't give me that full member stuff. You done admitted the Guru don't give you a cut of the higher rankings kickbacks. :-)

Watch it, bub, you're already in hot water. As a member of the Illuminati, I also got pull with the big man in the red suit (saw ol' Saint Nick at the County Courthouse yesterday, by the way). I can get you on that "naughty" list real quick. By the way, members of the Illuminati get a sneak peak at the "naughty girls" list. But in my case (see above re: She Who Must Be Obeyed), it's kinda like a dog who finally catches a car. Now what's he gonna do with it?
 
All that fat old fart has left me for the last 10 years has been a credit card bill. About the time I get the last one paid off, the Swell Ole' Boy leaves me another one. I hope you can get him mad enough at me that he skips my house this year.

My She Who Must Be Obeyed would frown on me seeing the naughty girls list too. So that ain't even an incentive.
