Wish I'd seen this sooner... The height is to the top of the overpass, according to Q&A.

seeing that the ball rests on the top of the pipes. We found the hang to be (assuming the the 6.5' overpass is on center with the pipes) it would hang only 1.5 inches below the 6' legal limit. If the 6.5' is at the bottom of the pipes it would hang only .67 inches from the 6' limit. this is assuming the the ball in of 40" diameter.

here is the diagram:

What 6' limit? I would advise a re-reading of <G36> in the current manual.

I measured 69 in at the kickoff to the bottom of the ball
