I would go to the London game but I don't like to  drive that far

Would be a expensive trip. Looking at airfare between $1100 to  $1500 roundtrip. Hotels are around $200 to  $300 a night. If you leave out Friday night arrive Saturday morning and leaving Monday. You are looking at $2000 before even buying a ticket to the game. 

Im a pro at finding cheap flights overseas, I def know I could get it under 1k, prolly in the 700-800 range

Hope not and don’t think so.

Eventually there will be a Dublin game but it’ll likely be the Steelers and with us going to Pittsburgh in 2018 it’s unlikely we’ll be involved with that one either.

I'm sure I read somewhere, but I may be wrong, that Jerry was never that keen on the Panthers coming over here, perhaps new ownership might view that differently?

For many or most it’s a once in a lifetime trip to boot, so should also include seeing other things/staying at least 2-3 more days, even an extra side trip to Ireland (cheaper) or Scotland would be HIGHLY recommended even if for only a couple days.

Still hope it doesn’t happen.  Keep American football in the US of A.

Oh how I'd love the Panthers to come to the U.K.; I think only four teams haven't been now so it's overdue.

That said, I wouldn't like to see you guys lose a home game for the benefit of folk like me. The Panthers aren't very well supported over here, with only 34 of us on the Panthers UK Facebook group. However, that would change after a game at Wembley; lots of newbies go to these games and adopt one of the teams on show.

There are plenty of Panthers fans there. We've got close to 50 members in the UK. Don't let Facebook be the measure.

Really? Wow!

Imagine how many you'll have if this happens.

There's a group of 15-20 that meet at the Hippodrome in London  for the games. Check them out if it's convenient

Will do. London is 400 miles from here, but I tend to get down two or three times a year.

All we need now is a Glasgow chapter...

I'm in for that Philly game if it's not in London.

Start your own chapter. It's easy. Just convince a bar to play the sound for your game and you're halfway there. Next get people to show up to watch with you. Blammo. You're done...basically. Then you gotta convince them all to give Zack $25. Do that part after a win and everyone is drunk er...confused about what's happening.
