What color is a tennis ball? (don't cheat!)

When someone asked me this question today, I looked at him like he was a complete idiot. 'What color is a stop sign?' I joked. 'What color is the tip of a black marker?' etc etc.

Apparently there is more than one knee-jerk reaction to this question... yes I know that you can make a tennis ball in any color and that there are different kinds of tennis balls.

When you think of a tennis ball, what color is the ball that pops into your head?

It's clearly yellow. If you think it's green, look at a tennis ball again.

if it were green, you'd have a hard time seeing it since the court is green.

There are different shades of green. You know what I'm saying?

I've seen tennis balls that are the light green, the a brighter yellow, like a highlighter. But most of the ones I've seen are light green.

It's neon green, which looks like yellow.

WTF green is beating yellow, this must be some joke, elaborate use of several gimmick accounts to make all of OOT seem like morons, anyone?
