Last year, the NFL played its first regular season game in Germany. The Buccaneers‘ 21–16 win over the Seahawks was a resounding success, drawing 69,811 fans to Allianz Arena in Munich on a brisk Central European day in the middle of soccer season.

The Chiefs and Dolphins‘ November 5 game at Deutsche Bank Park in Frankfurt sold out in 15 minutes Tuesday morning, filling the 48,000-seat stadium. 1,420,587 people were in the online ticket queue within just two minutes—a figure that would represent about 1.7% of the German population.
