Goal Post
What does Goal Post Mean?
This is located at the rear of each end zone, and is used for footballs to be kicked through for field goals or extra points.
Sporting Charts explains Goal Post
After beating a rival opponent on their own field, it was common tradition to pull down the goal posts after the game, usually by fans. This is a rarity and not practiced since a student was killed in a 2005 football game when Minnesa-Morris won a game in double overtime. The goal posts were brought down on the student and killed him almost instantly.
