For the past several years, the National Football League has played a regular season game in London at Wembley Stadium. The game always sells out, but this contest held by Virgin Atlantic Airlines will get you into the game!
Oakland Raiders vs. Miami Dolphins
The game will be held on Sunday, September 28, 2014 at Wembley Stadium in London, England.
Technically, this is considered a home game for the Oakland Raiders. However, both teams will be on level playing field considering the neutral site and the jet lag. Luckily for the Miami Dolphins, they are on the East Coast, so their commute will be several hours less than the Raiders if Oakland was flying from home.
Miami will be playing a home game the week prior versus the Kansas City Chiefs and then will have a BYE week following this game. The Raiders play at the New England Patriots the week prior to this game and also have a BYE week following the game in London.
