How many of you knew that such a rule exists?

I think it's interesting that the ref, when making the announcement to the crowd, said that it was an unusual rule.

And I was telling all my buds about it one day. They were all like "nah, bro. That never happens" Needless to say, I gloated tonight.

Not me. I don't understand the 1pt thing. If K St. had run it all the way back wouldn't they have got 2 pts?

Never had heard of it and I thought i knew every rule. Especially the scoring ones. I wonder how they came up with that?

I was at the game and the guy next to me immediately said it when it happened. I knew of the rule, but wouldn't have thought about it if he hasn't said it.

The rule is basically this: on an extra point attempt, a score that during regulation play would otherwise be ruled a touchdown is worth two points, and a score that would otherwise be ruled a field goal or a safety is worth one point.
