Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for November 08, 2019

He likes balls and he cannot lie.

I don’t think that it’s the boy that he is interested in.

I’ll say this for Everett. He has balls.

That would be the prize of his collection.

Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s….

Everett was the ball boy for the basketball team in high school and he loved his balls a bit too much if you know what I mean.

They had to fire him. It scarred him for life, and it’s now an obsession. He has hundreds of balls in his house. We’ve had to call the Sheriff more than once.

Sad really and a lesson for all you men: don’t get too attached to your balls.Creepy Everett.

He has a shrine to worship baseball. I think he wants the boy to play ball with him.

Everett, just watches for the ball to bounce in his yard….

“I just need one more…”

In certain spheres, he’s known as the Ball Baller.

Everett is a secret member of The Orb over on BCN.

That’s a boy?

I like the shrine with the incense and candle! and that the boy is named Wilson! nice touches!

Everett’s a retired priest?

Very disturbing in a hilarious way. The focal point of worship of Everett’s altar is dependent on young Master Wilson losing his toys. Everett has gone full on with the prie-dieu, incense burner, and green wreath. And somewhat blatantly at that; all you’d have to do is peek over the short wall and see the horror.

And Everett wonders what he has to trade..

I wonder where the bodies are hidden? Is Everett’s last name Gein?

It was only after it had been rather forcefully explained to him, that Everett decided to go with a somewhat different interpretation of “showing his balls”…

Nothing remotely creepy about Everrett. Nope. Nope. (I back away fast.)

Just another old coot!

Wow – I knew this cartoon could go horribly wrong on misinterpretations and the comments confirm this!

This is extremely creepy. Whatever the intent

One of the rare times you see someone who isn’t old in these comics.

Everett only developed his strange obsession after he went bald…

It takes balls to keep up a collection like that. Everett is getting carried away though.

My dog would love to be his neighbor. Her life revolves around balls

Aw, c’mon. He hasn’t got the balls to do it…
