One day we were playing at our rival high school and there was really strong wind blowing directly against us the first half. The wind picked up huge clouds of dust and at times it was impossible to see to the other side of the field. The sun was also setting directly behind the goal making it really hard for the goalie to see. For the second half the sun set and the wind stopped, and in the end we lost 1-0 from a goal in the first half. Not only were the conditions terrible, but they were a significant advantage to the other team.

I consider it the only pitch in the world made specifically for people with one leg shorter than the other. (Problems occur only when they switch sides at the half.)
