Deflate-gate.
Who in Bluffton isn't familar with this new national buzz word. It involves NLF football, the New England Patriots, and yes...Ada, Ohio. The Super Bowl footballs are made in Ada.
Ada and deflate-gate made page 1 of the New York Times on Jan. 21. And on Jan. 26 Ada is a feature on Fox News.
The New York Times story and video features Jane Hesler, retired Wilson Factory employee, who talks about making footballs.
The headline reads: "A seamstress who handed off to the NFL," with a subhead: "Watching Patriots scandal from afar, a retired football maker says Wilson did its job."
The Fox News story's headline reads: "Far from deflate-gate, football factory prepares for Super Bowl"
