one more ball skit

There was one more skit of five pink balls bouncing against the black background and they decided they wanted to play basketball. They determined they needed five, and after several botched attempts, they discovered yes, there's five of them, they can play! Until one of the balls brings up the bad news.

Ball: "Wait a minute! We can't play basketball!"
Others: "WHY??!!"
Ball: "WE DON'T HAVE A BALL!!!"
All: "AWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!"

Maybe they ended up playing tiddlywinks instead.

They would've also needed another team of five to play against.
