To the person who stole my paddle in the Raleigh/Durham area… I don’t know who you are. I don’t know why you would take my 2 year old Engage paddle with multiple dead spots and a broken edge guard. If you are looking for a ransom, I can tell you that I don’t have the money. What I do have are experiences playing at every outdoor court, community center, and private club in a 25 mile radius. Experiences that I have acquired over a very long and unsuccessful pickleball career. Experiences that mean I have likely played with you and even engaged in small talk. If you return my paddle to the lost and found bin at the Method community center courts, that’ll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don’t, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will tell you that you are a jackass.
