Beantown shatters world record with a 47-foot soccer ball
While soccer fans in Atlanta are busy tracking match-day beer collaborations, the city of Boston just marked its own high-visibility World Cup milestone by kicking a 13-year-old world record clean out of the park. During an official stadium lot showcase this morning, an adjudicator from Guinness World Records formally declared a massive, multi-ton soccer ball installed near Boston Harbor to be the single largest soccer ball in human history. The staggering display shatters the previous world record, which was set back in 2013 in Doha, Qatar, with a ball that measured just over 38 feet in height.
