> A football field or soccer field is a perfectly reasonable unit of measure when you're simply trying to convey "a lot" to someone.

At least in the UK it's somewhat of a 'meme', a byword for a tabloid, in the same league as irrelevant mentions of age and house price, etc.

We measure trunk space in terms of bodies it can hold. It's funny and clearly relates the capacity.

We do? Depends on who "we" is, I suppose...

I've seen golf bags mentioned quite often. But, come to think of it, that's about equivalent to a body, isn't it?

It's a common joke unit of measure to estimate the size of a small enclosed space.
