My report from London
 
just back now after an awesome week end

saturday afternoon photo with 2 Bucs cheerleaders near Trafalgar Square

saturday from h 18 to h 22 at Sports Cafè in London with approx 500 Pats Fans with
some very special guests:
- Mr Robert Kraft (when he arrived it was awesome: i was able to shake hands with him and i told 'i come from Italy')
- photo and autograph on my flag with Troy Brown
- photo and autograph on my flag with Gino Cappelletti (we talked also expecially about Italy)
- photo with Gil Santos
- photo with John Smith and a very long talk together
- photo with Pat Patriot
- photo with 4 beautiful Pats cheerleaders (wow...)

then Sunday the NFL Tailgate + Green Men

at the end of the game photo with Warren, Bodden (i talked with him a little bit), Alexander and LeVoir

autographs from them plus Neal and Burgess

i saw very well Brady (impossiblle to reach him), Belichick, Wilfork and some others

plus also Bucs players (i had Leftwich at 3 metres)

at the stadium the majority without a doubt were Patriots Fans but i counted more or less fans with all the other NFL teams too with their jerseys

imho the neutral fans were 'with' Tampa Bay

the game was more or less always in our controll

really a beautiful week-end my friends

thanks also to UkPats fans !

surely a nice experience

I've been waiting to hear from you. Looks like it was worth the wait!

Yes, please post photos if you can. Glad you enjoyed it. It was a well played game, though the Bucs are a few years away.

Mr Kraft is very approachable. I remember being at a preseason game in Washington DC. We had just takin our seats when Mr. Kraft was walking by us on his way to the field. I guess he was up in the booth, or something. Anyway, My Dad (who's never quiet) yells to Bob. He turned around, and the two start talking about the team. He's really friendly, and appreciates the fans.
