The Fate of Barry Bonds' Record Breaking #756 Home Run Ball To Be Voted On

Just read about this story today from fivecentnickelblog
Bond's 756th home run ball just recently sold at auction on ebay for $752,467. Fashion Designer Mark Ecko was the winning bidder and set up a website in order to allow the world to decide the ball's fate. Just visit the website here at www.vote756.com to view the options and then vote on what he should do with the ball. The options are as follows:

A) Bestow it.
Give the ball to cooperstown. The ball that broke Hank Aaron's Career home run record belongs in the Hall of Fame.

B) Brand it.
Burn an asterisk into the ball with a branding iron, adding a permanent footnote to the record. Then, send it to Cooperstown.

C) Banish it.
Put the ball on a rocket ship and launch it into orbit, a moon shot for the ages. Out of sight, out of mind.

Ecko will end voting at 11:59pm on september 25th. So hurry and get your vote in before time runs out. I already voted for option B. However, this makes me wonder what Cooperstown would do with a ball with an asterisk branded into it. Would they even accept it based on the fact that its the actual ball, or would they reject it because the ball had been permanently altered? Tell me what you think?
