I don’t think the expectation is for the fans in North America to travel to Europe. For those who do want to make a trip out of it, good on them but I think the NFL is hoping 60k are from Europe.

It’s been a while since NFL had a game in a stadium with running track, unless I am missing something.

The LA Coliseum still had the running track when the Rams were there. I don't know if it still does.

It wasn’t there when Rams moved back to LA in 2016.

You're right. I just looked it up. It was removed in 1993. So the last time the NFL played in a stadium with a track would be when the Raiders played there.
