Very cool. And you seem to have a great family. Nice work.

Where are the hash marks?

Family names on the sides are a nice touch.

I would like to request removable goal posts so yall can play paper football at the table.

being that i live in Waco, and i’m an LSU alum, i’d happily make a pilgrimage to your creation and pay proper homage.

and you’d be the second fellow Tiger i’ve met in Waco in just the past week.

Great pick-up - Didn't want the table to be to busy because we do school, games, etc, and the numbers are a little farther in and all the small markers were left off so not an exact replica.

It's close enough to be associated on National News level. Just like W's ranch.

But yea to locals here that's like Someone saying Cabela's is in Baton Rouge.

Yup! A water modified poly is ideal with water based acrylic paint for a crystal clear finish

Grade A

But for a perfect score:
Shadows on the numbers,
Arrows pointing to end zone every 10 yards,
SEC logo
Center hashmarks,

Still an A

What are standard football field lines and markings?

To start with, every football field is 100 yards long, at every level the game is played. The field, end zones included, is a rectangle that measures 360 feet long by 160 feet wide. In 1933, two rows of hash marks were added near the center of the field at 1-yard intervals so that at the end of every play, the ball would be placed on the nearest hash mark. Prior to the rule change, all plays began where the ball was declared dead. The midfield hash marks in high school and college football are further from the center of the field (and closer to the sidelines) on each side than they are in professional football, where they are located 70' 9" from the sidelines. High school hash marks are 53'4" from the sidelines while NCAA hash marks are 60' from sidelines. Sideline hash marks are individual yard lines running the length of the field in 1-yard increments.

The 6-foot wide white line surrounding the field of play is the sideline and represents the boundary for what is out of play. The yard lines on the football field are white vertical lines running the width of the field in 10-yard increments. The numbers run from 10 to 50 and then back to 10. Each yard line is numbered. In the NFL and in major college football, next to each number is an arrow, pointing towards the closest end zone. These arrows began appearing on NFL field in the late 1970s, by which time virtually every league game was on television. This is why many high school football fields still do not have the arrows - those games are generally not televised, so there is no need for the arrows.
