Michele Kapustka and Melisa Moroko walked into the Tank in Season 1, Episode 14 in the episode that aired February 5, 2010, bringing their Chicago, IL business with them. Send A Ball, the novelties, pitched in the Kids & Education category, one of 134 kids & education businesses to brave the Tank across all 17 seasons.
On the carpet, the number was $86,000 for a 20% stake, which valued the company at $430K.
The sharks passed, and Send A Ball left without a deal. That's not always the end of the story. Some of Shark Tank's most successful companies were rejected on air and grew anyway, using the exposure (the "Shark Tank effect") to drive sales the sharks missed out on.
Send A Ball was one of 64 businesses to pitch in Season 1, where 27 deals got done. In the Kids & Education category overall, roughly 66% of pitches have landed a shark across the show's history.
