Option 2

After Dag-Otto came to the USA he was quickly introduces to the local American football teams by his teammates and other friends he made in the organization. He'd heard a lot about it before leaving Sweden, and even watched a few games out of curiosity. But he never knew how much impact it had on the locals. Even if the city he was living in "only" had a college or high school team, the town was still crazy about them. Wearing the logo on almost every piece of clothing.

Not to say that's a bad thing. No, Dag-Otto was invited to try a new way of experiencing a sports event: The Tailgate. This is something he never actually heard of, but as it was described to him he felt excited to give it a go. And after that first time he happily joins his friends to all local tailgates, when he has time. Setting up in a massive parking lot with a hundred other vans and thousands of people is a surprisingly fun way of watching a game on a TV.
