Can’t just say “It weighs about 1000 lbs.”.
It has to weigh something wierd, like as much as a manatee.

Maybe they just knew their readers and knew to translate it into units they would better understand.
They knew their audience?

It’s Texas shouldn’t it read something like “XXXX .556 Nato Rounds”?

Fuckin’ A. The meteor hit with the force of seven kegs?
Putting it in those terms really drives home the awe and wonder of mother nature.

Seven full kegs. You don’t see those every day!

My local news covered this story too, but no mention of the keg forces involved. How am I supposed to know what 8 tons of TNT is?

That’s super dense, though. A lot of strongman natural stones are around that size and no where near 7 kegs of beer.

Using the one that just hit as the standard, college kids can now have parties with like 3 or 5 1/14 meteors of beer.
