OT: Northernmost football field in the United States

[Eric15]

Thought this was cool and worth sharing. Barrow High School in Utqiagvik, AK. At the very top of Alaska along the Arctic Ocean. I'm curious how the team travels to play their opponents considering it would have to be by plane. Also, I wonder what happens when the punter shanks a punt and it ends up in the Arctic Ocean.

Looks like they get better crowds than UConn.

Do they have to schedule home games only during low tide?

I follow their coach on Twitter for some reason. Off to a nice start this season. Lol

Late hit out of bounds and you get eaten by a polar bear.

At a minimum that should be a 2nd flag.

that is literally the most northern tip of Alaska!

I watched a show, I think it might have been a 30 for 30, during games they actually do have people with rifles looking out for polar bears. If I remember correctly, a family from Florida donated the turf field.

I bet they don’t have trouble recruiting.
