America and Columbus Ohio, this is why you are so awesome: a 1,000 pound meatball Guinness World Book of Record attempt. I attempted to calculate the diameter of this monstrosity, below. I got over 6 feet diameter, but I usually don't do math in public, so it could be wrong. Also, I had to guess on the density of meat balls, since Google failed me miserably. So for the next person that Googles "density of a meatball" perhaps this post will show up and they can use my complete guess (e.g. the density of a meatball is estimated to be 1.2). Has David Letterman done a "will it float" on meat balls? I wonder...
I hope to make it to the Italian festival to see this thing in person, perhaps validate my assumptions, and to see the convection oven used to cook it.
