Irish NFL fan in America Trip 2 Preview.

First off I’d like to thank each and every person who watched, commented and liked my first video blog from trip one. It was quite an effort putting it together as it was all completely new to me but I was happy with how it turned out. I think the vlogs will get much better as I go along.

I’m looking forward to getting on the road again and making another one which I hope will be better this time around. That’s the aim, improve each time.

I’m going to see Tom Brady play this weekend. 


Not for the first time and hopefully not for the last either as I plan on catching a Patriots home game in 2019. This time he’ll be away from home in what should be a hostile atmosphere against the Buffalo Bills.

Unfortunately for the Bills they won’t equal their playoff birth of last year and getting within a touchdown or two of the Patriots this weekend would probably be a good result.

Quite amazing that despite only being two games in to my NFL adventure I’m already about to see the same team twice!

The Bills barely put a score on the board in week one in my game in Baltimore but hopefully with home field advantage and a grudge match feel against the Patriots they can put on some kind of a performance for me this time around.


I’ll also hopefully get to see one of the most exciting players on the defensive side of the ball in Chicago Bears outside linebacker Khalil Mack. He has simply exploded onto our screens this year in the Bear’s uniform and has been one of the stand out players in the early parts of this season.

I’m only going to be in Buffalo for one day which is probably the least amount of time any Irishman has spent in one US city. I haven’t got high hopes for Buffalo as a tourist destination so it may be just as well. Hopefully I’m wrong and I leave rueing the fact that I only spent 24 hours in the best city in America.


I have no idea what the best city in America is but I’d imagine Chicago would certainly be a contender. I’ll get three whole days in the windiest of cities to see if that’s the case and I am most certainly looking forward to finding out.


I’ve no real plans for this trip just going to take it as it comes. I’m hoping Chicago and Buffalo will bring the party to me this time.

Fill you all in next week!
