Calling All Bills Fans in Blighty: How to Catch the Game in London (Because Fish and Chips Just Won't Cut It)
So you're in London, land of Big Ben, pints, and... surprising pockets of die-hard Bills Mafia? You, my friend, are in luck! Our boys (or, depending on the season, Josh Allen and his trusty throwing arm) are headed across the pond for a game at Wembley Stadium, and you don't want to miss it. But how, exactly, do you catch an NFL game in a land more accustomed to shouting "goal!" than "touchdown!"? Fear not, fellow Bills fan, for I am here to guide you through the glorious gauntlet of gridiron glory (with a healthy dose of British humor, of course).
Pubs, Glorious Pubs: Your Home Away From Highmark Stadium
First things first: pubs. No trip to England is complete without one, and thankfully, many pubs cater to sports fans. Look for establishments advertising the game – there's a good chance they'll be showing it. Bonus points if they have mushy peas, because hey, when in Rome... er, London.
Pro tip: Wear your Bills gear with pride. You might just find yourself surrounded by a secret society of Buffalo Bills fans who, beneath their bowler hats and stiff upper lips, are just as passionate as you are.
Streaming the Game: Because Your Flatmate Might Not Be a Bills Fanatic
Maybe the pub scene isn't your vibe, or perhaps your flatmate keeps complaining about all the shouting (rude, right?). No worries! Here's your guide to streaming the game in your flat:
- NFL Game Pass: This is your one-stop shop for catching every Bills game, live and on-demand. Think of it as your own personal Wembley in your pocket (or on your laptop).
- NFL+ (for US fans): If you have a US cable subscription with access to the NFL Network, you might be able to stream the game through NFL+. Just check the fine print before kickoff.
Remember: There might be a time difference to consider, so factor that in when planning your viewing party (or solo celebration – no judgement here).
