chrisjopsonconsulting was invited by the Populous Denver office to be an operations team member for the NFL London St. Louis Rams vs New England Patriots match on Sunday 28th October 2012.
During my time with Populous, I was an operations team member for the following NFL London Games:
- New York Giants vs Miami Dolphins Sunday October 27th 2007
- New Orleans Saints vs San Diego Chargers Sunday October 26th 2008
- Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs New England Patriots Sunday 25th October 2009
I was also fortunate to have been invited to participate in four Super Bowls, where I gained a real hands on experience of one of the biggest sports events in the World as a member of the NFL operations team: one of the most cohesive, coordinated, and friendly teams I have ever been a part of.
- Super Bowl XXXIX, Jacksonville 2005
- Super Bowl XL, Detroit 2006
- Super Bowl XLI, Miami 2007
- Super Bowl XLII, Phoenix 2008
Being on the ground gave me a real insight into how a major event should operate, the Super Bowl being a ‘mini-Olympics’ with all of the key elements, and then some.
