It could be the largest single garage sale in Hardin County - make that northwestern Ohio.

"It's" Wilson Sporting Goods Co., Ada, football garage sale. This year's sale is from 8 a.m. to noon on Saturday, Sept. 14, on the Wilson property on the east side of Ada.

The sale brings a couple thousand football and other sports fans to Ada for a once-a-year chance for footballs including overruns, blemished footballs, scrap footballs and many other miscellaneous sporting goods items.

The company is already staking out the area where sale items will be on sale.
