Joe Burke invented Ollyball, an inflatable ball weighing less than an ounce, after his daughter knocked over a plate of spaghetti while playing with a regular ball indoors. He put about $100,000 of his own savings into patents and inventory. Before the show he had sold roughly 3 million units through Target and more than 1,000 toy stores in eight countries, and the ball had won a 2019 Toy of the Year award. On Shark Tank in September 2026 he asked for $250,000 for 2.5% and accepted Lori Greiner's $250,000 for 8.5% of his company, Victory Sports.
