message: If the place is the length of the tabletop and not the width couldn't it be 4 tries instead of one?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.246.142.134 (talk) 23:15, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: There are variations on the game. Especially with small tables or school desks, one shot being a "drive" is common. For longer tables, 4 downs becomes more common. The variation I'm used to is generally the larger-table variety, where each player has 4 downs to get a touchdown. Players do not change posession at the site of the ball- each player starts from his own side every time, with point after attempts after touchdowns from the center of the table. Field goals can only be made instead of a drive, not from the table.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.83.118.230 (talk) 17:58, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

message: In my elementary school we always called it "Chinese Football"- does anyone know if this is a common name for paper football or if it is just a local thing?
: I agree.  I grew up in the midwest and have always heard this game referred to as chinese football.  Does anyone know the etymology of this term?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jbtbrooks (talk • contribs) 16:02, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Have played the game in the near-south and midwest, never heard the term. Americans call EVERYTHING "chinese" if they down know the origin (magic tricks, puzzles, etc) so this doesn't necessarily have any special meaning.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.83.118.230 (talk) 18:00, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

text: I grew up in New Jersey and all of the schoolmates that played this also called this game "Chinese Football". It always made me very confused because I am Chinese and I've never met any Chinese people who have ever even heard of this game.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 100.1.180.155 (talk) 15:08, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

message: When I grew up (1970s), although the triangle paper football was used some, we more commonly used a rectangle paper football (South Carolina).  Shouldn't there be a mention of a rectangle paper football?  It was folded up paper also, just folded differently.
In 1985 with the help of a copyright attorney I submitted some written rules and designed a field and had it screen printed on a canvas type material.  My submission received a copyright letter and number.  My current product can be found on www.PaperFootballLeague.net.  The package includes two paper footballs of triangular shape one goalpost and a playing field that can now be customized to include some of your choices.2601:601:8200:F4FB:6012:D144:539F:705D (talk) 08:18, 5 December 2015 (UTC)
