Al Weiss Table Tennis Champ

What can Al Weiss not do?

I shared a 1976 Eyes and Ears article about Al Weiss losing his ping pong crown to Fred Wessel in the championship match (apparently, Al won in 1975). I ran across another article that showed a young Al Weiss proudly holding his trophy from the following year.

From the June 15, 1977 Eyes and Ears.

ADVANCED TABLE TENNIS

Congratulations to Finance Division’s AI Weiss, whose skill at “juggling” figures paid off with his juggling a table tennis ball to reign supreme at Walt Disney World in the Singles Table Tennis Advanced Division, winning champion honors by downing Finance Division’s Jim Morris 16-21, 21-19, 21-15 and 21- 14.
