That stylized "W" puts Ada on the map - especially during the Super Bowl
By Monty Siekerman
This stylized W is, as all good Adaites know, the logo of Wilson Sporting Goods, maker of the Super Bowl football for many years.
This is the time of year when the media descends on our village to report on the making of the all-important pigskin.
In the past few days, the local factory has hosted representatives from A&E, Kenton, Lima, Findlay, and Columbus....and, of course, your Ada Icon.
Next week more the national media will be here, putting Ada on the map once more.
Reporters rush to towns where bad things happen (shootings, weather events, water crisis) but we are fortunate that the reports out of Ada are about an expertly-made local product.
