Editing Great Balls of Fire

The '''Great Balls of Fire''' are large, extremely powerful [[fireball]]s which were featured prominently in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' episode "[[The Fire of Hercufleas]]." Their name is a reference to the {{wp|Great Balls of Fire|Jerry Lewis song of the same name}}.

Located in the city of [[Mythis]], the Great Balls of Fire are guarded by the hero [[Hercufleas]], who keeps them in his acropolis home. The Great Balls of Fire are evidently more powerful than regular fireballs, as they are shown to explode violently upon contact with an object, creating an explosion powerful enough to destroy a stone wall and pillars.

The Great Balls of Fire can also be controlled mentally by whoever is in possession of them, as [[Bowser|King Koopa]] is shown to make several of the Great Balls of Fire chase [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] by simply concentrating and making gestures with his hands. The Great Balls of Fire are also finite, meaning that they will eventually be extinguished if used too much. If the Great Balls do run out, they can seemingly be ignited once more by simply placing fire in the urn the Great Balls of Fire are kept in.

*During the fight against [[Bowser|King Koopa]], the song "{{wp|Great Balls of Fire}}" is played, although it was edited out for later airings with "[[List of The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 songs#It's a Dog's Life|It's a Dog's Life]]" from ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]''.
