AmishBengalFan Posted May 3, 2022 Report Share Posted May 3, 2022 As soon as the NFL releases the schedule - in less than 2 weeks - you can bet that someone will rush to Wikipedia to update things there immediately. Here's the Germany listing ... scroll up slightly to catch England and the game in horrible Mexico City. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NFL_International_Series#Germany_Games Edited to add: With 2020 wiping out the International series, there are presently only 4 teams (ATL JAX MIA NYJ) who have played in one of these games more recently than the Bengals. Of the three AFC teams playing "at" TBB this year, KCC (2019) and BAL (2017) have had a longer or equal wait time than CIN (2019). Presuming an AFC-NFC matchup (to allow for an opponent that already has 9 away games on their schedule this year), it would seem that the odds are stacked against the Bengals as the designated visitor in Munich.

AmishBengalFan Posted May 3, 2022 Report Share Posted May 3, 2022 Of course.... if the Stripes *do* head to Germany, I'll be able to complete my collection by seeing a professional football game in all of the nations shown in the attached USA Network WLAF intro reel. England - Bengals at Wembley vs Redskins (2016) and Rams (2019) Germany - Bengals at Allianz Arena vs Buccaneers (2022) Spain - (WLAF) Ohio Glory at Montjuic Stadium vs Barcelona Dragons (1992) Canada - (CFL) BC Lions at BC Place (Vancouver) vs Hamilton Tiger-Cats (1989) Edited To Add: The moment the British WR catches the pass thrown over the Atlantic as the music changes to "Rule Brittania" - goose bumps for me every time, man. A close second is the instant you realize that the music playing for Germany is from Beethoven's Fifth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By far, my favorite thing to do is walking the cobblestone streets of the smaller villages. There are no telephone poles. Everything is underground. If you live in the United States, it's a foreign concept not visual in one's mind until you see it in person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Tigre Posted May 5, 2022 Report Share Posted May 5, 2022 Off German topic, but European nonetheless (SF2 will appreciate this): How about one team looking to win a FCS national championship and a Super Bowl within 2 weeks of each other (with a possible Division I National Championship just before the SB)? And, not to mention already winning the Division II National Championship?: Division II (aka EFL Cup) FCS National Championship (FA Cup): Possible FCS National Championship (Premier League): And Super Bowl (Champions League): All this in the month of May.

And, with the Amish phone books loaded with pages of "Benner's", my last name, I'm pretty certain I will someday. My brother had a 60-acre farm (half forest) in Sayre, PA in the '80's, but I never got there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CincyInDC Posted December 23, 2022 Report Share Posted December 23, 2022 https://www.charivari.de/nachrichten/deutschland-und-welt/was-dich-2023-in-und-um-muenchen-alles-erwartet/11529588 No source quoted and no idea who is "currently speculating" but yes, I would be down for this. Quote Sports The first NFL game ever in Munich took place in 2022. Since everything worked so well, there is currently speculation about whether the NFL game should be hosted in Munich again next year. Munich would step in for Mexico. That would mean that the NFL games would take place in Munich for the second time in the fall. Sport Bereits 2022 hat das erste Mal überhaupt ein NFL Spiel in München stattgefunden. Da alles so gut funktioniert hat, wird momentan darüber spekuliert, ob man im nächsten Jahr das NFL Spiel wieder in München ausrichten soll. München soll nämlich für Mexiko einspringen. Das würde heißen, dass im Herbst zum zweiten Mal die NFL Spiele in München stattfinden würden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Tigre Posted January 19, 2023 Report Share Posted January 19, 2023 Allianz Arena is a brilliant place. Not perfect exactly for the NFL, but totally perfect for the "other football" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
