NFL fans can’t get enough of massive beers at Patriots-Lions game in Germany
The massive beer glasses in the stands had NFL fans in awe during the Patriots-Lions game in Munich, Germany.
On a busy Sunday in the NFL, fans gathered at the Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany, to watch the New England Patriots take on the Detroit Lions. Unfortunately, the game was not as smooth as expected, as star quarterback Drake Maye suffered an injury in the first quarter and the Lions went on to dominate, winning the game 35-10.
Despite the rough start, fans enjoyed a significant amount of beer throughout the four quarters. Play-by-play announcer Joe Davis noted that the beers were quite large and required the use of one's lower body to carry them. Social media quickly picked up on the oversized beverages, with jokes about the size of the pitchers being shared.
In Germany, beer is served in much larger quantities than in the United States. An average beer in the U.S. is just 12 ounces, while in Europe, people typically enjoy full pints (16 ounces). The camera panned across the crowd and showcased fans holding massive pitchers of beer, highlighting the cultural difference in serving sizes. The Lions ultimately celebrated their victory with oversized beers, while the Patriots fans had to make do with their sorrows.
