Thanks for your input! Let us know more about what's wrong in the form below.
How big is 979 pints?
It's about 90 times as big as a Bowling Ball
The size of a Bowling Ball is about 11.1361072920 pints.
(USBC specifications; tenpin)
According to United States Bowling Congress specifications, a tenpin bowling ball should measure at least 10.795 cm (4.25 in) in radius for a total volume of about 11.1361072920 pints. Because regulation balls measure the same diameter irrespective of their weight, ball density varies by size and balls weighing less than about 5 kg (11 lbs) will float in water.
