German sports stars among the 69,800 spectators at the Allianz Arena
So around 69,800 people made the pilgrimage to the Munich Arena. According to the League, around three million tickets could have been sold. Even sports celebrities didn’t want to miss Brady’s first appearance.
Thomas Müller, Jamal Musiala and associates gathered on the sidelines ahead of the trip to the national football team’s World Cup meeting place. Their Bundesliga colleagues Mats Hummels (Dortmund) and Christoph Kramer (Mönchengladbach) and tennis pro Alexander Zverev watched the football match in the Allianz Arena.
Buccaneers and Seahawks fans create an impressive noise level
There, rap star Cro warmed them up. The singer performed some of his hits with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers cheerleaders. The Seahawks came out first to a deafening roar from their fans. Cannonballs rattled as Tom Brady brought in his buccaneers.
At kick-off, the stadium really freaked out. Both fan camps produced impressive noise levels. He was even passed again in the first NFL touchdown on German soil, managed by the Buccaneers. Again and again Laola’s wave swept through the stadium. During the breaks, the DJ kept the party going.
When the Buccaneers’ victory was confirmed at around 6:00 p.m., the entire stadium chanted “Country Roads” at the top of their lungs. And the German fans agreed: “Oh, how nice.” “It was one of the best football experiences of my life. It couldn’t be more fun,” said superstar Brady. The Munich game was the NFL’s best advertisement for the German market.
