The Importance of the NFL


AIRBUS

Football is a must. If it weren't for the football field we would have no measure to compare large items or distances against. As it stands fewer and fewer Americans are even aware of the dimensions of a bread box. On the larger side, the distance to the moon (and possibly back) is simply too vast when describing the size of the new Airbus A380. Think about it.

Wow, that must be a smaller than normal football field.

Here is the description at PBS.org

"Lengthwise, it would nearly stretch from goal line to goal line of a football field while its wing tips would hang well beyond the sidelines."
