And like a field gaol the ball must go between the up-rights. I can not remember how many points you can get for this But I do remember seeing on tv a while back that Jim McMahn tried to get Mike Holmgrin(SP) to let him do it during a game.

Any how to get to my point of this thread, is this method of scoring for real? If so is it still leagal today in the NFL? Have others heard of this?
