Can you say runoff? Politics is in a terrible state nationwide. Need a legitimate 3rd party. A moderate party that can actually compromise and come together for the common good.
I would tell them someone needs to be willing to pick another number or both of them will be a different number.
Have them both roll a ball from home plate to the pitcher's mound. Closest to the pitching plate gets the number
One or 2 of our tournaments every year uses this method for pool games.actually had an ump use this technique to decide home/away instead of coin toss... let a player from each team roll. Was one of the best umps we have ever seen, interacted with the players on a level they loved.
