I also used y0 as 0 which would assume the ball is being throw from the field and not from Allen's hand which you could probably call 1.75m which would be around 5 1/2 feet off the ground. So at the apex of flight it would be around 38 yards traveled. kudos. i could not find something like that and i looked. i found a calculus calculator but couldn't figure out how to get the h= formula into it.

I also used googles range calculator http://www.mapdevelopers.com/distance_finder.php and zoomed in on new era to get the approximate range from the ground to behind the top row at the west end. It looks like its about 154 feet. So that is around 50 yards it would need to travel above (I'm going to guess 80ft above ground level) to make it out of the stadium or at least on to the part of the building that is there. 1

Golden Goat Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 No. This is the Buffalo Bills we're talking about. It has "torn rotator cuff" written all over it. 1

Yea the only thing I can think of is maybe if he did it from the tunnel but then you have the suite area/broadcast booths? that is probably around 90ft instead of 80 but the distance it needs to travel is about 5-6 yards less. I know there is a way to figure out the height of the object at a specific time of flight but I haven't found that yet. Edited January 4, 2019 by The Wiz

MAJOR LAWSUIT It will never and should never happen..... if it does its only asking for a possible regrettable situation False. while unnecessary risks are highly unnecessary and not to be encouraged. You have to throw ball out of stadium 1 time. Also we could get a warning horn Which would be awesome 1

Yea it's ht = - 16t x vt or something like that. I did enough math today to last me a while so I'll just say that it's plausible that he could do it. 1

Don't think it can be done. 110' is the apex of a good punt; he might be able to do that (though I'm skeptical), but I doubt he could achieve that hgt at a significant distance. I've (obviously) never been down on the field & it's been a number of years since my last time at the stadium, but I'm roughly guessing maybe 50 yds plus? You do know he can throw farther than 50 yrds, ya?
machine gun kelly Posted January 5, 2019 Posted January 5, 2019 I seriously doubt he would ever do that as he would at least be fined and possibly suspended. He does not come across as a dumb kid. I wouldn’t want him to even try due to a possible injury to a fan.
row_33 Posted January 5, 2019 Posted January 5, 2019 Has anyone tried it before and how close did they come to accomplishing it?
Dr.Sack Posted January 5, 2019 Posted January 5, 2019 More likely to break the glass. Also it hit a drunk being thrown out. Yikes.

Beast says Kelly threw one up into the stands and it went maybe two thirds of the way up the lower bowl. Edited January 5, 2019 by Foxx 1

Suspension and hitting a fan (he did once say he could probably kill somebody throwing the football) are probably why he hasn't tried yet.
Beast Posted January 5, 2019 Posted January 5, 2019 (edited) Go to 1:59:10 of this video and continue to watch until the end and it may give some an idea just how impossible the task would be. Kelly throws multiple balls up into the stands but it will give you a bit of an idea. Edited January 5, 2019 by Binghamton Beast
Beast Posted January 5, 2019 Posted January 5, 2019 http://buffalobills.io-media.com/web/index.html From the wall to the end of the stadium, in the endzone, looks to be approximately 55-60 yards.....then, add the height to it. Impossible.

Impossible. Something a young man thinks about, then after a few seasons he starts thinking how quick he can get back to the locker room and encase himself in ice 1
