About 40 balls are used during a typical game, but the Super Bowl will have three times that amount.
The game balls must all weigh between 14 and 15 ounces.
The game balls must measure 28 inches end to end and 21 inches around the middle.
The factory, located about 80 miles northwest of Columbus, Ohio, has been supplying the NFL with footballs since 1941.
