We just managed to get tickets with some pretty good seats today.  Did anyone else ?

Yup!  We'll be way up in the corner of the end zone, but we'll be there.   ;D

No.   :-[  I got an email that said that I might have a chance during the secondary phase if any tickets go unpurchased.

Does the email have a passcode on it?  If it does I think that means you stand a very good chance!!

What block number if you don't mind me asking?  We have block 106. Near the edge of the goal posts. I am really looking forward to this.  We went ahead an bought our maximum number tickets allowed as we know there will always be someone who will want to go. Right now I am trying to convince my sister and BIL to come over as they are huge NFL fans. I was hoping this might be the thing to get them over to visit.  Even though they are excited about it they are still dragging their feet about coming over *shrug*.  (Sometimes I give up trying to tell people that the cost of a plane ticket over here is much cheaper than paying for the whole family to go to Disney!! They wouldn't have to pay for anything else while they were here.)

We'll be waaaaay above you on the other side of the end zone in block 517.   :)

We did the same thing.  My girlfriend and I will go, and will bring along whichever of her relatives is the most interested in going.

Got tickets for upper tier, similar position to what I had for FA Cup semi, so know it will be a decent view, level with the 10 yard line I reckon.

And the Saints are my team so really looking forward to it....ironically it will be DF's first NFL game!

I know this is late but my fiance managed to snag me a few tickets for this game. Can't wait to watch an NFL game in Europe. Been an NFL fan since I was born(my father played in the NFL when I was born).

There has been a change of plans for us due to some work conflicts.  I have 4 tickets. If anyone is interested, PM me and we can discuss .

We watched it at home.  My husband was confused about all the flags on the plays.

It was great to see some NFL.  And I thought BBC did a great job of explaining the game.

Yeah, it was a pretty good game.  The Saints were in charge throughout, but the Chargers had a chance (albeit a slight one) at the end.  Good job, NFL!

I got an email from the NFL yesterday with a customer satisfaction survey.  Based on the questions, it seems like they're thinking about doing a game in Cardiff or Edinburgh.

If it's on television I'll for sure be watching it.
