The Seattle Seahawks are set to take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Munich on November 13th, with both teams participating in the first ever NFL game to be played in Germany. And if anybody doubted how hotly anticipated this inaugural sporting event is, you can be reassured that at least a few people are looking forward to some Bavarian Ball... a few hundred thousand at least.
Hundreds of thousands of German football fans are currently waiting on the ticketmaster website to be allocated a place in the queue, which will then offer a few thousand lucky people the opportunity to buy tickets for the first NFL regular season game in Germany.
