Poast new message in this thread
Date: May 13th, 2025 6:20 PM Author: Ocher Racy Chapel Now that Vegas (Golden Knights, Aces, Raiders) and Austin (Austin FC) are out of the picture, what’s the largest city in the USA without a major sports franchise?
I’m thinking: Oakland Honolulu Hartford El Paso Quad Cities Quebec City Phoenix Norfolk Inland Empire cities (but I consider this LA) Anchorage Albuquerque Raleigh Chattanooga Boise
