It's Called Football: Dolphins/Chiefs Game In Germany Sells Out In 15 Minutes, Ticket Waiting Room Apparently Had 1.4 Million People In It
First things first, don't you get any fucking idea Roger. I'm already annoyed at constantly seeing tweets and articles about how the NFL is going to expand into Europe. No. There's already enough movement in the league, travel, all of that. We don't need teams in Europe and we don't need more teams. It's set up just fine the way it is.
Second, yeah, football dominates. I know soccer is the sport of the world and all that, but look at this. 15 minutes to sell out, a ridiculous claim about the waiting room, even Taylor Swift fans are jealous of this buying process. People must really want to see Tua I suppose.
That said, I hate that this is a neutral site game. I wish this was in Kansas City for the Tyreek return. I hate neutral site games in general. I know, I know. Money, expansion, exposure, all the buzzwords. Call me old fashioned but games are meant to be played in front of a home crowd, even if Germany was AWESOME last year:
Hey, I get it, it's not like they get to see the NFL in person. So of course they are going to show up in ridiculous numbers. I'm more scared of the trickle-down from it though. We saw it last year and thank God we didn't have a neutral site AFC title game. Again, Roger will fuck it up. The moment it goes well once, Roger will exploit it. I just want my games the way they always were. Homefield advantage should mean something.
