Answer 1

Get a board maybe 2 1/2' sq. mount a wall bracket on one end if you want to mount it on your wall. Paint the bracket the same as your wall and stain the wood brown and glue a piece of astro turf on the top. Mill a slot for a glass case to rest on. Put a kick off holder on top with the football in the "to be kicked" position with most names facing outward. Put a 5 sided glass case (a glass company can make you one and the missing side is what is going to rest in the milled slot) on top of it so your work doesn't get dusty. On the edge of the wood which sticks out you can put a bronze plate (go to a trophy store and they will make you one) with the names that signed the football. As an option you can have more sides wood such as the part that will be against the wall. If you put too many wooden wall up it will look more like a box that holds a fire extinguisher than a trophy case.

Answer 2

Yes they do. Texas and Oklahoma both do. I'm from OK but live in Tx now in the Army. There are more high schools in San Antonio that have artifical terf here in this one city than in most states counting colleges. My high school had 112 males in high school my senior year and had 99 go out for football. You had to be on the football team if you wanted to play basketball, wrestle or run track if you were a guy. Our stadium holds 5000 on the home side and always has standing room only at the games. A coach can get fired for being under 80% wins.
