I would be heading there for sure. Love that city and a Bills game would be incredible. I wonder if they’ll let me bring in my six packs of 7–11 sushi that I like to eat…

don’t knock it until you try it.

Id be happier if the 6th Bomb Group headed back to Tokyo.

7-11's are so much more interesting there. Love it, I would totally try to go back to Tokyo.

I have never been but would try to go if the Bills are there. My wife and I try to take a big trip every couple of years. We didn’t do one this year but are planning to in 2027.

Just fyi, it's pronounced Tok-yo. Not Toh-kee-oh you Americans.

My wife and I had been doing a trip for a game each year up to 2019 and stopped at COVID. I would think that next year’s international game would be a great opportunity to start back up.

Hope the Vikings aren't playing. Murray will feel so small next to all those Japanese folks

On a serious note, my sightlines in a crowd in Japan are incredible. At 6’5” I am a giant to them.

Do they follow you? A friend of mine is very tall and said when he went he was getting followed like a celebrity, people taking pictures of him all over the place

Rams have the international rights to Japan, the sole team represented there. Buffalo doesn't play them next year. I think Seattle is a logical Rams opponent.

Patriots. Kraft is an aficionado of eastern delights. 🤨

I would think they will more likely choose west coast teams to play there

Maybe the Bills could wear their fatigues, à la The U. Man, McD missed out on the good stuff.

By 2040 the NFL will have a division of 4 international teams and play in 50 countries. Book it

It’s actually Merr-uh-cans tyvm

Japan is my favorite country to travel to. Everyone's polite, everything is clean, and it's cheap vs the USD too. The time zone difference is brutal though. Takes a few days to get used to going in each direction. Each team that plays in Japan will be at a disadvantage the week after the Japan game because of adjusting back to time zones in the USA. Guess it's not much different than the Australia game this year.

Great. This is exactly what the fans have been asking for.
