Isn't the free kick sitll in both the NFL and college rule book.

When was the last time anyone can remember seeing one utilized.

Fair catch kick, a field goal attempted freely from the spot of a fair catch

is this a thing you can actually do?

A couple of times in the NFL the last few years.

Arizona tried it and failed miserably.

The last successful fair catch kick in the NFL was by Ray Wersching in 1976 for the San Diego Chargers against the Buffalo Bills.[2] Since then, seven fair-catch kicks have been attempted. Most recently, Mason Crosby of the Green Bay Packers attempted an unsuccessful 69-yard fair catch kick against the Detroit Lions on December 28, 2008.[3] This kick missed by only a few yards. Had he made the kick, it would have been considered the longest kick in league history, as it would have exceeded the record of 63 yards currently shared by Tom Dempsey, Jason Elam, Sebastian Janikowski, and David Akers for a traditional field goal.[3]

Here is the one that barely missed in '08. Matt Flynn from LSU was holding on that one. It's a weak video but the end of it shows just how close he was.
