Not forgetting one or two British fans.

3 more (regular season) NFL games at wembley in the Autumn, I've been to all the previous 11.

They are heading towards maximum capacity which would mean by the 2nd game 1 Million fans will have seen a live NFL (regular season) NFL game at Wembley !

And if you are wondering, a LONG suffering Raiders fan.
Anyone else remember AFRTS AFN 873mw (Frankfurt) ?

Not too important. Rugby with crash helmets, body armour and too many commercials.

Wonder how many American 'football' stars would match up to a comparable English rugby team?

Bodies everywhere. Mostly American.

Conqueror, I've always thought it was a pretty silly game, but they have 300 lb high school kids playing it, as well as former olympic athletes in the NFL. It terms of sheer physical size, power and athleticism there's not another football code that can match American football.
