8:56 am

penquis

10:05 am

mattygroves

The American football games that are played here get huge attendances - it's not my thing (I've gone once...I could not work out what was going on without the typical TV commentary - but the beer was good) - and yeah, the British do laugh at how little foot is in American Football, but really, whatever floats your boat.
