Dennis Briege
Germany
Dennis has been a cornerstone of the German Patriots community for many years. A dedicated fan since the early 2000s, he's only missed a handful of games in that time.
His passion for American football began in the early to mid-90s when the NFL hosted five consecutive exhibition games in Berlin, Dennis' hometown. It was at these games that Dennis discovered his love for the sport, and soon after, the New England Patriots became his team—a bond that remains unbreakable. Whenever the Patriots host an event in Germany or require assistance in any capacity, Dennis is always the first to step up and lend a hand. His unwavering dedication to the team and consistent support make him a truly deserving recipient of the International Fan of the Year award.
Beyond being one of the most passionate Patriots supporters, Dennis has also been deeply involved in the local football scene. He has served as a youth football coach and was a member of the Berlin Adler, a prominent team in the German Football League.
