I had a patron and his father come in asking about the record for most the most basketballs spun simultaneously. They thought it was in the 1990 edition of the Guinness Book of World Records. We didn't have this, and it wasn't in the more recent editions (2007, 2006...). We checked the GWR wcbsite, and found a listing showing that the older record that the patrons had been referring to had been superseded. Here's the link to the specific article:
