LONDON (AP) — The first of three NFL games in London this season is Sunday when the Indianapolis Colts face the Washington Commanders. London games usually sell out quickly, meaning if you were unable to buy tickets the day they went on sale you were out of luck. That wasn’t the case for the Colts-Commanders game at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The league recently dropped nearly all the remaining tickets to the lowest price category of 79 pounds, including some originally priced at 235 pounds. Fans who paid full price say the NFL should have made it more affordable in the first place. The second London game is Jacksonville vs Philadelphia, and it sold out immediately, likely because of the Eagles’ popularity. Fans say gone are the days that they’ll snap up tickets to just any game.
