How big is a fucking football field?

[-] Sturgist@lemmy.ca 7 points 5 days ago

Which type? CFL fields are bigger than NFL fields, and a football/soccer field is the same size as an NFL field or larger

[-] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 9 points 5 days ago

The one where all the players are attached to poles and someone else spins the poles and it makes the players rotate along the y axis so they can kick the ball

Roughly 1.5m × .75m based on the last time I saw one in person over a decade ago? So I guess in freedom units that's a full grown Golden Lab not including it's tail by 2-3 footballs

From the article, the garden is about 15,000 square meters. So they're using whichever one is about 5,000 square meters.

So American/NFL rules, apparently. CFL field including endzones is 8152m², NFL is 5350m².
