Kraft: The Patriots want to play a game in Scotland

[Triumph]

Yaaass. Would absolutely love this. Murrayfield Stadium in the capital, Edinburgh, or Hampden Stadium in Glasgow, would be absolutely rocking for this. There are many of us Pats fans in Scotland.

Do you reckon that the stadium would sell out?

I suppose Irish and English fans would attend too.

Looks like Murray seats about 68,000 and Hampden about 52,000.

You get Haggis at Murray too.

You are kidding, right?

I believe that all NFL games in Europe have sold out. Sometimes there 5 or 10 times as many fans wanting tickets as available tickets.

I have exactly zero question that fans from Scotland alone would immediately sign up for far more tickets than available, probably in a hours after release.

Poster here may really hate the idea of NFL games in Europe (or in South America).

But, make no mistake, these games are very, very popular. The open question is how many games a year would Europe support with sellouts.

As many countries as there are in Western Europe.
