Classic 76 Antenna Ball. Has never enjoyed riding high above a car waving in the wind. Brief history: Introduced in 1967 Union Oil, introduced "76" gasoline in 1932. The name referred to the 1776 United States Declaration of Independence, & was also the octane rating. 76 signs are orange balls with a 76 legend in blue. Until the end of 2003, 76 balls were located at the Daytona International Speedway & Talladega Superspeedway in all four turns and at other NASCAR tracks, plus it was on the checkered flag when 76 was the official fuel.The 76 ball is also a landmark at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, where the only gas station on the premises of a major league ballpark is visible from the park beyond the outfield stands. 76 ball logos also adorn the baseball field's on-deck circles. Union Oil was a longtime sponsor of the Dodgers baseball team, beginning with their relocation to Los Angeles from Brooklyn in 1958. The sponsorship by the 76 brand continues to this day.
