Are you ready for some football!?
Overview[edit]
American Football is a sport played with 22 total people, and 11 per team, though less people can play than that. It is both popular in YTP (see "Usage in Poop"), and also a popular discussion topic on Youchew.
The object of the game is for the offense to reach the opponent's end-zone, which is a touchdown (worth 6 points, or 7 in casual games without an extra point).
After a team scores a touchdown, they can either go for the extra point (kick the ball through the goalposts), or they can go for a 2-point conversion (must make it to end zone). If they do not make the extra point or 2-point conversion, nothing happens, they just don't get the extra point(s).
The offense must at least make it 10 yards for a 1st down in 4 plays, otherwise it is turned-over, and the other team gets the ball.
The Yoshi Shuffle[edit]
The sport is famously featured in the Super Mario World episode "The Yoshi Shuffle", where Mario thought that it would be a great way to teach the Cave Men organization and teamwork, after Stone Luigi chucked a stone football at him. Sadly, that didn't work, since the cave men have no concept of organized sport. Meanwhile, Luigi was turned into an Egg by Wizardheimer, and was used as a football in a game between the Dome Heads and the Koopa Carcass Crushers (won by the Dome Heads 7 to a big, fat, egg-shaped 0).
