minus-squareson_named_bort@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·4 months agoWhich sports use metric in the US? Gridiron football uses yards, auto racing uses miles, baseball uses feet, etc. The only sports I can think of that use metric are track and swimming, and those aren’t as popular outside of Olympics time.
