    They only kick off in pubs and on the street.

    I think Sky are required to talk up the stadium every 5 minutes as part of the contract. Good.

    Just in case anyone wants to watch a 15½ hour video of the pitch switch:

    Attendance at the NFL match today was announced at over 65,000. Is the capacity somehow higher for gridiron

    No, the average NFL fan has to buy a second ticket for their lunch

    NFL benches alone have around 500 people on them don't they? That'll explain it.

    Just a typo then.
    Impressive performance of the US national anthem with the singer standing in front of the Cockerel plus a low level fly past by 4 jets as she got to the last line.

    I've enjoyed watching the match from our ground, which looks magnificent. I know absolutely nothing about NFL but the guys are good at explaining! Lovely to hear the anthems sung so well too. Now for our game, fingers crossed... COYS

    Thought this might interest anyone that is considering going to a non-Spurs game at the ground.
    £6.90 for a pint of Budweiser? I'm sure they sold out of beer at one of these, too.

    I'm going to guess that price has been dictated to them by either the NFL or Anheuser Busch, considering we have deals with Amstel and Beavertown and neither cost that much per pint

    I think the prices go up across the board at non-Spurs events, but I've not attended one to check.
    I'd love some feedback from anyone that does go to one, though.
    Do we actually still serve the other stuff, how's it priced and how are the queues in the ground?

    It's funny how Muricans say they had socialism, but expect to have Budweiser and only Budweiser at all sporting events

    Just shows their overall lack of taste in so many ways.
