About 600 cows are used to manufacture a full season’s worth of NFL footballs.
And all of these footballs are manufactured at ONE factory in a same town called Ada, Ohio! Wilson Sporting Goods Company has been the official football supplier for the National Football League since 1941, and 150 workers at the plant in Ada construct 700,000 regulation-sized footballs BY HAND each year!
If you're a cow (in which case, congrats on learning how to read!) you have only a 1 in 17,420,000 chance of becoming a football that is used in the Super Bowl (roughly the same odd of catching the black plague).
