Chiefs How many of you can actually afford to attend the London game?

Red Dawg · 11-07-2014, 03:24 PM

I am not a poor man but I certainly don't have the few thousand bucks laying around to just blow on a football game.

Would the damage for two people be 10k or more?

Why Not? · 11-07-2014, 03:26 PM

Could I? Yes. Will I? **** no.

Dayze · 11-07-2014, 03:26 PM

it's probably like owning a Ducati....if you have to ask how much the maintenance is........

I would have to make it more than just about the game. I'd stay in London in a hotel until gameday, then check out and go to the game, and afterwards head for the Cotswolds. If I visit England other than just changing planes at Heathrow then I will make a trek to Cheddar and seek out the sharpest, tangiest cheddar of them all. I'd hit a few pubs as well, of course.

If I started saving now I could but I've been to England many times and wouldn't have money to do much else once I got there.

Garcia Bronco · 11-07-2014, 03:36 PM

Can I? Sure...would I...no. Not even once. Probably wouldn't go of a full ride.

Garcia Bronco · 11-07-2014, 03:37 PM

Since the NFL is stealing home game revenue and taxes from the states and locales with this...I wonder if Government could do something about it.

**J Diddy** · 11-07-2014, 03:38 PM

Not a chance. It would be an awesome adventure for sure, but one that is just going to have to remain a dream.

**Trivers** · 11-07-2014, 03:38 PM

I'm turning in airline miles.

Using hotel points.

So my only costs will be game tickets and food.

London is expensive.

I wonder how much the tickets will be????

Garcia Bronco · 11-07-2014, 03:39 PM

I would fly over there to watch the Open, but a trans-Atlantic flight to see an over-priced watered down product in the NFL. No thanks.

**DaFace** · 11-07-2014, 03:40 PM

If you're literally just going for the game, then I bet you could do it for around $4k. Flights will run you around $1,200-$1,500, tickets maybe a few hundred, and a couple nights in a hotel plus restaurants.

But if you're flying to London, one would think you'd want to do more than watch a football game you could watch for $300 total with a better atmosphere in KC.
