The "King" is Eddie Feigner. Although it appears that the King himself doesn't play any more, the "Court" is still touring.

I never got to see them in person, but have a tape of an ESPN special from about five years ago. Feigner had a great line that means more to me as I get older. In the special he was asked if he still threw as hard as he used to. I'm guessing he was in his late sixties at the time, he answered, "I throw as hard as I always have, the ball just doesn't go as fast!"
