Part of the fun of NFL games in London is that they don’t just draw fans of the two teams playing. Sunday’s Dolphins-Jets matchup -- one of three games in London this season -- offers a rare opportunity for any NFL fan for miles around to feel totally at home wearing American football garb. So, game appropriate or not, the jerseys and hats are out. Here, see how many items of non-Jets/Dolphins apparel you can spot:
How many different NFL teams can you spot in this photo from Jets-Dolphins in London?

This, as Steven Godfrey discussed, is the flavor of fandom for American football in England right now -- folks there are deeply passionate about the sport, and that passion is dispersed over the whole league. So yeah, when the NFL comes to town, it’s costume Halloween. Doesn’t matter which teams are playing.
