    Ridin' Burgundy is probably going.

    Haven't seen him much since the server move though.

    They did 2 years ago. I'd love to, but couldn't justify spending that kind of money to make it happen.

    Hell, I'm twisted on whether or not to go see the Giants at Giants Stadium this year.

    Nope. My wife is due to pop our 3rd that weekend. As a Brit, I'm actually not a massive fan of the Wembley games.

    I see where you're coming from Chrisbob, I don't think you can beat the true American experience of going to one "over there". I will do it but as I intend to go to Tampa Bay/Miami for my first visit I'm pretty limited on who I can see.

    Congrats man.

    What do you mean by "not massive fan of the Wembley games"? Is it just American football at Wembley, or anything at Wembley? I'm just curious.

    Wembley is a nice stadium, but it's not really cut out for contact sports, the turf gets cut up to heck. It's also outrageously expensive for food.

    I mean the actual idea of the NFL playing games over here.

    1, Wembley is a horrible place to get to, when they decided to rebuild or build a new national stadium it's the last place it should have been built at. It should have been built just outside of London and had dedicated transport links by road, rail and bus. I worked round the Wembley area for a couple of months in 2006 the traffic is horrendous!

    2, As a neutral, where would I rather see Tampa Bay play? In expensive, overcrowded, rip off, bad weather London or in sunny Tampa, getting the whole travelling experience with it. Same for most of the other teams that come over.

    I want to see the NFL take global fans seriously, but I don't actually think this is the way to do it.

    I gotcha, thanks for explaining.

    ok, out of curiousity, how many of you on this thread that have gone or are going to a UK game are actually Americans traveling over there or are American citizens living in Europe? Just curious.
