    This is where 11 a side came from as well as the regulation football pitch size

      thats because a lot of americans arent american at all, despite their legal status. There are many unamerican cabals within american society that make things like this impossible. Most immediate example that comes to mind are the various fairs and carnivals in southern california where, unsurprisingly, opposing gangs run into each other and ensues in violence. These people have no reverence for the setting, a place for families to have fun, and a lot of the time innocent people will be killed for getting caught in their crossfire.

      Each ball is designed for the person throwing it up and hand painted. The paint wears of quickly though and soon becomes a large brown leather ball. On occasion, ‘duplicate ball’ have appeared but players can feel the difference so they are soon discarded.

      William Shepherd why the hell this clusterfuck of a game is allowed is beyond me. It literally trashes the town, they have to board up buildings so they don’t get destroyed and people will _always_, inevitably, get hurt. When you have thousands of men running around town in flocks tackling and climbing over each other to put a ball in a goal miles away, injury is unavoidable. IMO, it only seems like a matter of time before someone is killed.

    It’s amazing how this game has been played every year between the North of the town and the South of the town for over 400 years. The Atherton Ball Game which is similar, has been played in the town every year for over 800 years. It’s crazy to think about.

    • @mastertrams

      More than 400. There was a fire in the 1890s which destroyed our earliest records, but the ones that do still exist date back to 1667, so I'd say we've been playing it for a good 500-600 years. Not even the World Wars could stop it from being played. In fact, only Foot and Mouth and Covid could stop it.
