American football fans celebrated seeing the “Ted Lasso” crew celebrate and sing “Sweet Caroline” at the Vikings-Saints game in London.
The fans at Tottenham Hotspur enjoyed a great football game Sunday as the Minnesota Vikings faced the New Orleans Saints.
It was only fitting that these two teams, who had developed a bitter post-season rivalry over the years, took the game out to a nail-biting 61-yard field goal that should have been. Instead, Will Lutz kicked a agonizing double kick, thus continuing the pain of Saints fans at the hands of the Vikings.
But for those who were not personally affected by the outcome of the game, it was, objectively speaking, an exciting football match of all time.
Which is why it’s no surprise that the best British footballers ever to appear on the silver screen thronged the stands to show their support for American football. A crew of AFC Richmond “players” are seen in Apple TV’s “Ted Lasso” among the Tottenham fans singing and chanting at the NFL London game.
Their brave leader, Ted Lasso himself (played by Jason Sudeikis) was in attendance, showing support for another American sports league by donning a WNBA hoodie.
Ted Lasso and American football crew get a lot of love at the London NFL game
Of course, the admiration from across the pond was not flowing in one direction. Adam Tellen, the future Vikings wide, landed in London wearing lasso-inspired belts, which Ted Lasso’s official Twitter account thanked him for.
For those wondering what Ted Lasso’s crew was singing about, Gridiron’s Michael McQuaid explains that he’s none other than Neil Diamond’s “Sweet Caroline.”
The Richmond crew also took a photo together, courtesy of the UK’s NFL, with Sudeikis holding an American football emblazoned with the Union Jack tag.
Christo Fernandez, who plays Dani Rojas on the hit show, was also present and was wearing a Detroit Lions jacket. Talking to NFL network Before his first NFL game, Fernandes explained that he’s wearing his Lions jacket by saying “Barry Sanders was a legend,” a comment that makes him even more endearing to American football fans.
Fernandez also said he will definitely attend the NFL game in Mexico between the Arizona Cardinals and the San Francisco 49ers game in January. His exact words were, “We’ll be there,” which means that perhaps the entire Ted Lasso crew will gather for another NFL debut.
Suffice it to say, as the athlete said, this was “The churros we all need.“Although some saints fan wished it was”The Good News That Saints Need in London‘It’s a positive sign for the beloved crew that got 40 Emmy Award Nominations He won 11 Emmys in two great seasons.
