The 1111th comment of Balls of Rice was made by the famous Norm Rockwell on Wednesday, April 13, 2011.
His prize will be announced once I come up with a name for it.

I have been waiting for the 1111th comment for several months. It happened, and I am relieved. Now to finish his prize, for myself as much as for him.

I later checked to see when exactly he posted his comment, and this is what I found:

I almost lost it. Still I am blown away.

11:11 forever.
