The Football in action. Note how it is dropped by the player when taking damage.

The Football is a novelty item that players can throw to each other, or to themselves. It is sold by the Party Girl for 20 CC, after the player has accumulated a golf score of at least 501.

Holding the Football and pressing ⚒ Use / Attack throws the Football. It can then be "caught" and picked up again, even while in flight, by another player, or by the same player.

A player who takes any damage while a Football is anywhere in their inventory will automatically drop the Football, and it can again be picked up by another player, or by the same player. If multiple Footballs are in the player's inventory at the time, they all drop.

Trivia

The item's usage references how in American football, players may pass the ball at their teammates by throwing it, or tackle opposing teammates in order to seize the ball.
