American Chick in London: Day 1

So I’ve arrived. Nola Chick is across the pond doing all she can to spread a little love to our boys. Fresh off the plane at London’s Heathrow Airport, who do I see but a gang of jet-lagged Chargers fans. I smiled in their faces while secretly sprinkling grandma’s gris gris on their luggage. Bloody bastards.
At customs, I had an interesting interaction with the British bloke behind the counter.
Customs Bloke: “Why are you here?”
Nola Chick: “Going to the Saints game.”
Customs Bloke:”What is it with you people and this game?
Nola Chick: “Um, it’s football. But you know, the real football.”
Customs Bloke: “Yeah, well I get it for men. But why do women care?”
Nola Chick: Obviously this is your first run in with one of “The Chicks.”
Customs Bloke: Confused and frustrated facial expression followed by a heavy sigh.
