American Sports Thread

I've been to playoff games in New York, in baseball and football, its really not that difficult to source the tickets, the problem can be the price. There are state laws about how much over the odds you can pay but they just don't seem to be enforced. If you're willing to pay you can get tickets on stubhub or ebay.
Of course the corporate ticket is the easiest answer.

Anyone going to be around London for the Superbowl?? last year we went to Cheers, its was deadly, got fairly hammered that night. Couldnt remember the second half, had to ask me cousin the next morning, "the Colts did win right". Made the mistake of wearing a Buffalo Bills jersey(im not a fan) , got the piss taken out of me by everyone.

Chances of getting into Superbash are slim, its a lottery on NFLUK. But if you cant get to that, Cheers is good. Anyone know of any other places around London that have something on for the Superbowl?

jaguars?!

would love nothing more than pats to reach the afc final and chargers to kick their a** (colts first of course!)

Yes I know, I'm just pointing out the mistakes that your man on TV3 made last night.
