In order to fathom how enormous of an amount of beer that is, the comparison has been made that 325 million gallons of beer are enough to fill 500 Olympic-size swimming pools.
But that is a TERRIBLE comparison, because most people don't truly understand how big Olympic-size pools are. 500 pools doesn't seem like THAT much.
So what if we compared it to Kiddie Pools instead?
An Olympic-size Pool holds approximately 660,000 gallons.
A Kiddie Pool generally holds between 20 and 100 gallons.
Based on these calculations, while 325-330m gallons would fill 500 Olympic-size Pools, they would fill 6.6 million Kiddie Pools!!!
Total Beer | 325m Gallons |
Olympic-size Pool | 660,000 Gallons |
500 Olympic-size Pools | 330m Gallons |
Kiddie Pool | 50 Gallons |
6.6m Kiddie Pools | 330m Gallons |
That's right, it is estimated that Americans will be drinking enough beer to fill 6.6 MILLION kiddie pools!
