Tickets will be in the lower 300 section. IMPORTANT: Please only vote if you are seriously interested in attending the roadtrip. UPDATE: We would also like to know who is voting for which game as well as people's 2nd preference so please can those who have voted already pop a quick post in to let us know! The poll will remain open for the next two weeks and close on Friday 20th May, after which time we will open the application process. All final decisions will be at the discretion of the moderating team. Happy Voting - and GO PATS! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

andywales 4 Report post Posted May 6, 2016 Would rather see Tommy play but really don't want to see the Rams again or go in December. So it's looking like a Jimmy game for me. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Martynb27 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2016 I'm already going over for the Rams game in December, so id love to travel over with you all for that. Was really hoping for the Ravens the week before as well, that's a pity... 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

D_Lo 17 Report post Posted May 6, 2016 Definitely wouldn't be able to make the first 2 games as my current job stands. I have time booked off late August/early Sep already. Given I am not sure about what will be happening at that point though it wouldn't be fair to vote in the poll. If I did, it would be Buffalo or LA. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

waspie 51 Report post Posted May 6, 2016 I'm planning to go to the road game in Phoenix, so would stay on in the US if it's the Dolphins (though I'll probably try to source my own ticket - I really hated those nose bleeds). I don't think I can see myself doing any of the other dates. It's great that they've offered us what might be very competitive divisional games. Plus a home opening game would be great, whoever is lined up behind center. If it's Jimmy, he'll need all the help we can give him. And the cheers of Brady Brady will be awesome. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hanks 12 Report post Posted May 6, 2016 That's great news Mandy. Thanks for setting this up again. I'm leaning towards the Bills as well. Thursday game isn't good for me and many of us saw the Patriots vs. Rams in London a little while ago. There's still no word from either the team or Brady on whether he's going to appeal so there's a chance the suspension is put on hold again. If anyone's planning seeing another sport while they're here, Houston is the one for the Red Sox as they play the Yankees at Fenway during the preceding weekend. Bills & Rams are best for hockey but the Buffalo game will be during preseason for the Celtics. Too early to know if they'll be home or away though. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrs laz 81 Report post Posted May 6, 2016 A couple of friendly reminders: Do NOT make any travel arrangements or commitments to any game until the final decision is confirmed. Anyone interested in joining must be a full UKPatriots member. We are not a ticket office. We expect everyone joining to actively participate in the community. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GronkSpike 0 Report post Posted May 6, 2016 Gonna go with the Rams. Only so many years left I'd get to see 12 play. Also. Seeing the LA Rams in their first year back could be interesting. Also, I'm voting in hope here as I've just bought an apartment so with mortgage repayments amongst other things I might be struggling. Fingers are crossed though. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bognor_pat 1 Report post Posted May 7, 2016 I would like to vote for the Bills game. But as I've already paid for everything to be flying out for that game, it would be great to see another game with the group. I've only seen one game with the UK Pats back in 2013, the other games I've went to see were on my own at Gillette. Plus I don't arrive at Logan Airport until 8pm the night before the game and only using public transport / taxi's it's gong to be a nightmare getting to the RT hotel that late. Maybe I just to convince myself everything will fine! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
