Sounds like set-up for some really bad joke. What was their answer? "Because no one wants to shave their balls"? I'm sorry 😫

There's actually some science behind it, the actual reason is «the felt covering helps make them softer, slow their speed in the air, and regulate their bounce. »

(Fur wasn't the correct term, but I didn't remember a better one to translate the original question )
