Chiefs to Host 2015 Game in London
As part of the NFL's International Series the Chiefs are headed to London to host the Lions on November 1, 2015
The National Football League announced on Thursday that the Kansas City Chiefs have been selected to host a regular-season game overseas for the first time in franchise history. The club will take on the Detroit Lions in London on Nov. 1, 2015. The Week 8 contest will be part of the NFL’s International Series played at Wembley Stadium, one of three NFL games taking place in the United Kingdom in 2015. The game will be televised live locally and nationally on FOX. “It is an honor for Kansas City to represent the NFL on an international stage,” Chiefs President Mark Donovan said. "We are excited for the opportunity this creates for our fans, our city and the global growth of the Chiefs brand.” Chiefs Chairman and CEO Clark Hunt has played a key role in expanding the NFL’s footprint overseas. He has served as the International Committee’s Chairman since 2011. The International Series has grown from one regular season game in 2007 to three games in 2014. In total, 17 clubs have played games in London since 2007. Six NFL franchises will play at Wembley stadium in 2015. The Chiefs will host the Detroit Lions, the Miami Dolphins will host the New York Jets in a division matchup and the Jacksonville Jaguars will host the Buffalo Bills. NFL International was formed in October of 1996. The league has held at least one regular-season game in London each year since 2007. http://www.kcchiefs.com/news/article...e-1ba9510c50e6 Quote:

If they put a team in London, the NFL can fist **** themselves.

I can still hear my Dad yelling at the TV back in the early 1980s:
"What the **** did that ****ing red-haired, ****ing pig-eyed Mick just say!!? Wimpleton?! Wimpleton!!? It's "Wimbledon," you ****ing ****!" Mum: "I don't think he's Irish, dear."

I feel that they are totally going to mess up "home of the Chiefs," something fierce.

Dunno what would be the draw of Spain given that anywhere from 25 to 50% of the 18-49 demographic is unemployed.

I am going to go for sure. Sounds fun. And hopefully they do give STH some advantage to get tickets there since it is a home game.
