Easter egg- football question

Sorry if this has been posted before, I did a quick search and couldn’t find anything.

So I played ages ago and did the football thing from the vending machine on meridian. I did it again yesterday and originally the football was black and white. Now it’s silver and has a barcode on it. I tried to scan the barcode with a phone app, but nothing. The barcode numbers are 083607972091.

Anyone know anything more? Why has it changed colour and why is the barcode so prominent if it doesn’t do anything.

You got me intrigued so I did a little digging and it looks like this was something that Bungie added back in Reach:

Here’s a screen cap from a Rooster Teeth vid last year (launch day) where they found it on the regular ball in the mission

Still not sure exactly what it means, might look into it more :slight_smile:

Tis an old one! the barcode is the same as it was in the H4 and Reach soccer balls. doesn’t scan and isnt a real barcode

Too bad it would have been cool if the easter egg led to another easter egg, Eggception?

Any ideas why they changed the colour to silver?

I also totally missed them in reach and H4.
