In Oslo. I am originally Finnish, but have lived here for 20 years. I was a member of a board-game club in Finland, it was mainly played ww2 games, civil-war.., etc.. but also sports games.
And with the NFL, we had a league that grew to 20 teams in 4 divisions. This was the game we played: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/4454/statis-pro-football
That's where I learned the rules / tactics, etc for American football. And the team I chose to represent (and become a fan of) was Cinncinati Bengals. This was when Boomer Esiason played. When it became superbowl (for real), we rented the biggest TV at the local dealer.
