ABSTRACT:
A game footbag includes a generally spherical outer skin formed of a pair of octagonal end caps oppositely positioned and joined by a plurality of longitudinal panels. Each longitudinal panel extends between aligned facets of the octagonal end caps and is mutually joined to the adjacent longitudinal panel on either side. In addition, each longitudinal panel is formed of a pair of complementary panel segments having complementary diagonal edges which are joined to form the longitudinal panel and which produce a plurality of angular sewn seams in the outer skin of the footbag. A filler comprised of generally oval or spheroid pellets having smooth outer surfaces loosely fill the interior of the spherical skin. In the preferred fabrication of the invention, the pellets forming the filler material are fabricated of a slick-surfaced plastic material such as Acetol.
