Did they serve tea at the stadium?

didn't look, but probably, yes.

They get so many English tourists at the Santiago Bernabéu in Madrid they serve tea there. I do not trust people who do not drink tea. Uncultured [censored].

I was offered face value tickets earlier in the week for about $135, which were towards the lower end, I'd guess OP's tickets cost more

I was near the back and paid $140 (face value) so OP must have paid near $200.

Pretty average game but was a decent day out and the stadium was excellent. Beats watching the England football (soccer) team play there anyhow.

The main story the papers here were running in the build up was that Channing Crowder didn't know where London was, didn't know that we speak English here, had only heard of one London before: London Fletcher, but he knew he wasn't from London because he is black and we don't have black people in London, and he didn't know that he needed a passport to get here.

Either one of the greatest levels of all time or he's completely braindead.

I thought it was a pretty damn good game, and much more interesting than my other option (Colts v Panthers)at the time. A lot of NFL fans enjoy a bad weather smash-mouthed football game, with 2 solid defenses. Miami is not nearly as bad as everyone is making them out to be in this thread, I honestly don't believe there is a bad team in the NFL, some just run worse with injuries and their schedule.

edit- the Channing Crowder comments were hilarious, I hope sor his sake he has a good financial advisor and life coach that he trusts completely.

Word from Miami sportswriters is the latter.

how much were those seats?

Did the fans get into it? I have never met an Englishman that liked or even didn't hate American football.
