38/356: Swissbowl VXXII

Broncos 46 : Gladiators 41

What could be the result of a NFL game is actually the result that decided the Swissbowl. The Swissbowl is our version of the Superbowl..on a much smaller scale. There might have been about 1000 spectators. 

The final was between Calanda (Landquart) Broncos and the Basel Gladiators. This was the fourth time in row that these two teams met in the final and the fourth time that the Broncos beat the Gladiators. It is also Calanda's fifth win in row and they made appearance the last six finals.  Not surprising then that the Broncos also won the European final last year. Kinda get the feeling they are dominating the league here in Switzerland. 

I really enjoyed the game. They played surprisingly well for humans. These players are big but they are still humans, not like the monsters playing in the NFL. I guess what you can say that the intensity was the biggest difference to the NFL. 

This was the first of three football games I will attend this year. More about that at a later point.
