Having never watched a game of American Football before, I was thrown in the deep end by visiting Ann Arbor and catching a game at Michigan Stadium, which I believe is the highest capacity stadium in the US (and third highest in the world). I quickly came to realise that the game itself is slow, is stopped more than its actually played and is frankly a bit tedious. The spectacle however, made it all worth attending. Watching the game on T.V with beers is also ok, because the you can easily spend as much time talking and drinking. Kind of like cricket.
