NFL City Trips

I was sitting on a flight home from a Thanksgiving trip to San Diego and I started thinking about how many major cities I've been to in the past year. It's been quite a few, but I also started thinking about all the cities I haven't been to in a number of years. So I decided to see how long it's been since I've visited each city with an NFL team. I consider visiting the city as at least spending enough time in the city to enjoy a meal. An airport layover or driving by on the interstate doesn't count. I drive by Baltimore almost annually, but rarely actually visit Baltimore.

The results are presented here for your viewing pleasure:


It's pretty good that I've been to 11 of the 32 NFL cities within the past year, but it is disheartening that past that I haven't really been to many other NFL cities in the past few years. I'm a little embarrassed about San Francisco and Boston. I feel like I've been to each of these cities within the past 5 years, but I cannot recall when. They are high on my list of places to go again soon.

As a side note, it would also be an interesting list to do NBA teams, as I have been to Oklahoma City, Portland and LA recently, but have never visited Memphis, Toronto or San Antonio.
