A standard American football field, including both end zones, is about 1.32 acres in size. The field measures 360 feet long by 160 feet wide, totaling 57,600 square feet, which converts to approximately 1.32 acres.
For reference:
- The playing field itself (without end zones) is slightly smaller, about 1.1 acres.
- Soccer (football) fields tend to be larger, from about 1.58 to 2.04 acres depending on the exact dimensions.
Thus, when people refer to a "football field" in the American football context, it is generally understood to cover about 1.32 acres including end zones, making it a useful comparison for land size.
