The dimensions of the field width wise do not work. When added together the field comes short by 1 to 1.5 feet. This was then proven by building the defenses and lining them up.

Clarification: The missing foot can be found in the actual official Field Drawings, where the Defense Platform ramps are marked as 52.5 inches, where in the game manual it is listed as 50 inches. The addition of the extra 2.5 inches on the 5 defense platforms adds up to about the missing foot that is found with the game manual dimensions.
