A Las Vegas Newcastle United fan documents his attempt to become a Geordie, one weekly challenge, match, and time-zone calculation at a time.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-07 issue.

Field notes

The project organizes its story into weekly chapters, with Week 3 marked as the latest and earlier chapters retaining their own post counts. Its recurring mechanism is a homework exchange: visitors propose Geordie-flavored tasks, while the Las Vegas-based creator records what happened and keeps a running count. The page also functions as a match-day utility, translating Newcastle fixtures into Las Vegas time and visualizing the 5,019-mile, 7.6-hour-sun gap between the two locations.
