Patriots playing In Germany next year

[Hammer of Thor]

This sucks for season ticket holders. Especially considering it's the Chief. This sucks for the team. Especially considering it's the Chiefs.

It’s not Pats vs. Chiefs. There are 5 international games this year. The NFL just named the 5 home teams. Opponent is still unknown.
Bills, Titans, Jags will play in London next season; Chiefs, Patriots will be in Germany - ProFootballTalk

Friends. Chums. Pals. Amigos.

If any of you would like to help me bring my sons to a game I'd happily oblige. Looking for 3 tickets presuming season ticket holders have access.

Would be open to paying a premium too. Message me if you have access.

Ok, thanks. Still sucks though. I'll let you know how much when the opponent is confirmed.

I don't believe we will be getting any advanced access.

Thanks. Registered.

munich would be cool stadium; but kind of hoping for Frankfurt cause it is only an hour away.

In Germany the water is still $4/5 (pretty much everywhere because they solely deal bottled water, no tap) but the beer is cheaper. Therefore it's really difficult to stay hydrated

You just have to know to ask for “Leitungswasser”. (Lie-tongues-wah-sir) [water from the tap].

you will never see it on a menu, but a restaurant will generally give it to you free.
but no ice.

Ah, I heard that they quite often say no so I got nervous when I went there and dodged the interaction lmao.

2021 we had 9 home games. 2022 we had 8 home games. This coming season we should have went back to 9 home games but are going to lose one going to Germany. But I don’t like losing a home game playing in a different country

Thanks for the correction. Some reason I was thinking this was the first 17 game season.

Munich would be perfect.

I would take the car.

 

[Froob]

Have to seriously consider making the trip for this game.

I definitely would try if I didn't have a baby coming this summer. Looks like a great environment.

The Ferrari or the Lamborghini?

If I had to guess, either Washington or New Orleans.

Please be careful.

I absolutely HATE games played over-seas. If Europe was such a hot-bet, why did the developmental league die?

They should be playing the PRO BOWL is other countries.. Let that be the advertising. Otherwise, it screws over the loyal fanbases of both teams.

Well said. They might like the spectacle and "party atmosphere" but only a very small percentage of them understand enough to be considered diehard fans. I've chatted with several Brits/Europeans about this and a common refrain is the rules are too complicated for them to get seriously interested. Which is understandable for those who didn't grow up with the sport or have a chance to play it. As a season ticket holder I'm pissed about that ninth home game being played in Germany.

As for the Pro Bowl going overseas, I think that would be an even greater waste since it no longer is an actual game and a hodgepodge of "all-stars" playing for nothing would have even less interest for them than for us, which ain't much.

we aren't playing the queefs... They are hosting a game in Germany just like New England is

 

[denverpatsfan]

Eagles fans say they are playing the Pats in Germany

1. development league was a poor try in the early 90, the fans over here want as well the real nfl (stars and teams) nowdays and the interest for the game increased drastically in the last 5 years, 91-93 was not yet the right time for the NFL in europe and the concept of some piss poor fake football nobody bought in, but now with the real NFL teams playing here its a different story

2. in the last couple of years there is an highly increased tv coverage as well (and therefore fan interest of the nfl throughout western and eastern europe increased as well), you get like at least 3-4 games per week live while when I first got into it 20 years ago it was 1 ****ing game A YEAR, and that was the SB, you didn't even had quite any chance to watch a game, early 2000 there were no possibilities to watch the NFL as easy as it is nowdays...
during the early 90s when the NFL Europe was played (and nobody cared) it was even less, like ZERO games you were able to watch, welcome to the streaming age, back then it was even hard to get any kind of information like what the score the last game was let alone having any kind of highlights or broadcast of the games, even youtube was not there yet in early 2000, times have changed

3. there is a huge market potential the same size of the USA (500+ M people with growing interests for the nfl) the owners didnt accept the 9th home field game just to hand over extra game to season ticket holders, theyd rather cash in on the new opportunities outside of US where you can gain even more money from new thursty fans that are probably more willing to pay extra to watch, people are traveling from Italy, France, Netherlands etc. to Germany to watch the game, thanks to Brady, Vollmer, Jakob Johnson, etc. the Pats have quite a fanbase in Germany I would not underestimate it, if there would be nothing to earn be sure the NFL would not be here and I am greatfull for the opportunity given to the fans here to have a chance to watch a live game, its way easier than travel to the states to watch a game

Got my attention. Is the cost of the season ticket based on 8 or 9 home games? Do you get a first shot at tickets to the foreign games?
