NFL-Swift Hype in Germany

 It is a curious story....there's supposed to be a NFL game in Frankfurt on the 5th of November....KC Chiefs versus the Miami Dolphins.

Chatter has started up that it's possible that Taylor Swift may now show up because of her new boyfriend player (for the Chiefs).

How much hype is created by this story?  Fair amount.

To be honest, she's supposed to be schedule for 7 concerts in mid-summer of 2024....in Germany....all high-capacity arenas.  So yeah, it's a big deal if she shows up in Frankfurt on the 5th.

Taylor who? Is that a new linebacker for the chiefs?

Taylor Swift (the singer) and the boyfriend....Chief's player....Travis Kelce.

Personally, if you asked me to recognize her or her tunes....I'd fail. But on entertainment value (at least in Germany)...she's a recognized promi.

Odd how this NFL game for Frankfurt has gone into turbo. I think you could sell tickets for 300 Euro a seat now (for just a regular season game).

I went to Woodstock when I was 14 years old and remember the ticket price was 7 dollars. It seems the prices have gone up a bit. I saw Super Bowl 4 and remember we paid 5 dollars for the tickets. The world has gone crazy.

1-day ticket at Disney-Paris....$129.00.

For these lesser-desired seats in Germany for the Taylor Swift concert (summer 24)...it's roughly 175 Euro EACH.

Back in 2011, I went to a Nationals ball-game (DC)...a fairly good seat and shaded, and Pentagon had discounted tickets...but it was still $37 per seat (would have been $50 without the discount). By the time, I bought beer/food...that cost ran to around $75 for the evening game. Ridiculous, I will admit.

Life is no longer cheap.
