Chicago Bears in London. Football!!

[adruml]

The Bears played the Cowboys at Wembley Stadium in 1986. I saw the great Walter Payton playing.
I think it was the first NFL match in England, as far as I know there's been one every year since.
Bit far for me to go these days and costs more than I want to pay

2 of the 5 games I saw live were the 85' Superbowl Bears team, Walter Payton and Crew. I think that 86' game against the Cowboys was more hype rather then a regular season game.

2007 was the first regular season game in London.

2005 was the first regular season game outside the USA - was held in Mexico City.

Nah - am not a big fan of nfl.
I dont mind watching the occasional game on telly - and it is a good sport for betting during play.

with all the padding n stuff, its kinda like rugby for girls.

My son played Rugby for three years in High School. Insurance was ridiculously expensive. Not a candyass sport thats for sure.
