In a bold move, London mayor Sadiq Khan has set his sights on hosting the Super Bowl, WrestleMania, and major boxing events in the British capital. His ambition? To solidify London’s status as the “sporting capital of the world.” But NFL fans have swiftly shut down Khan’s Super Bowl dreams, responding with a mix of skepticism and humor.
Khan’s plea to bring the Super Bowl to London has sparked a flurry of reactions. American football enthusiasts, however, aren’t buying it. “Get in line, Pal,” one fan quipped. Another retorted, “A hard NO!” The sentiment is clear: London may be a global city, but the Super Bowl remains an American institution. And as one fan wryly put it, “Send our national holiday overseas? NEVER.”

With lessons learned and improved security measures in place, the city aims to welcome football fans peacefully. Whether that peace extends to American football remains to be seen.
