The Bible is the most shoplifted book in the USA.
FACT or CRAP ?
FACT or CRAP ?
Because they will say it's fact.
Which is probablyy wrong. The bible is the most stolen book for sure, but most of that theft comes in the form of nabbing them from churches and hotels (many of which still stock their rooms with bibles). Shoplifting is by definition stealing from a store while pretending to shop. I suppose it's possible that it's ALSO the most shoplifted, but most stolen and most shoplifted aren't necessarily the same.

I think the game balls are replaced fairly often, and 100,000 bounces is probably something like 40 games. But what does the question mean by "last"? What if they're replaced fairly regularly?
