A different kind of 'footy' at the MCG: 1st NFL game brings economic boost to Melbourne

The Los Angeles Rams are scheduled to play the San Francisco 49ers mid-morning local time on Friday, Sept. 11. Tickets went on sale Wednesday for the game at the 100,000-capacity Melbourne Cricket Ground and most of the seats were sold out.
