    Despite the drizzle there thousands of people there for the entertainment that completely filled Regent Street. If you were a fan there were a lot of sideshows you could try, free of charge, where you could show off your prowess at the training exercises and shooting the ball. They also had VR headsets that actually put you in a game.

    Apparently, there were lots of NFL stars there that you could meet but I wouldn't have recognised any of the.

    There were TV crews and presenters (mainly American) in abundance and the event had certainly brought a lot of American tourists to the country.

    The marching band had many hundreds of members and they were playing mainly British tunes :blue thumb:, including Rule Britannia.

    This fellow was certainly blowing his own trumpet :heehee:

      Oh right, I thought I saw some odd looking rugby on the TV earlier?

      But then I dont understand either game.
