The last time the Bears played in London we were down 8-0 in the third quarter and were looking up at the London skyline while a British rebel attacked the field. Then, in the fourth quarter, a different kind of British invasion invaded our stadium. The Bears didn't just lose the game, they started a fire that would last for hours, the fire would spread to the stands, the smoke would be so thick your eye could barely see, the winds would suck you underwater in the stands, and the fire would make you drown in the stands.
Then, a few hours on Saturday morning, just as our team was starting the fire, they made the decision that the whole team would play in the rain. It was too dangerous to continue the game. We would be playing in the London rainbow for the rest of the season. I know you may laugh at this story, but it was true.
When I think of the last time the Bears played in London I don't think about what it could have been like.
