How YOU can visit every NFL stadium for a game in the 2025 season… and the exact week-by-week travel itinerary to do it
A guide to visit all 30 NFL stadiums for a game during the 2025 regular season, plus a spectacular trip to see gridiron action in Madrid, with the exact travel itinerary to do it has been revealed. The realistic schedule sees the ambitious person attending no more than two league games every weekend, with only the overseas trip to Spain, a mid-season trip to Charlotte, and the final week of the season containing one NFL contest. The games were paired based on geography and scheduling windows to make the cross-country expedition as seamless as possible, per The NFL's final week was not included in the schedule to visit all 30 current NFL stadiums, with the Jets and Giants, as well as the Chargers and Rams, sharing league venues. Using the cheapest flights available between all the cities listed with New York City 's three-major-area airports as a home base, on airfare alone, one fan would spend $5,148 flying to make every single game. That number skyrockets if someone wants comfortable accommodations in the air, ideal flight times, or less hassle for layovers. Any fan would then have to worry about travel from the airport to stadiums, lodging, food, and plenty of other expenses to make the dream trip a reality. The above total also assumes all air travel goes without a hiccup, and if that were to occur, buy a lottery ticket with that level of luck. NFL DREAM TRIP SCHEDULE Week 1: Dolphins vs. Colts in Indianapolis, Vikings vs. Bears in Chicago Week 2: Panthers vs. Cardinals in Phoenix (Glendale, Arizona), Chargers vs. Raiders in Las Vegas Week 3: Raiders vs. Commanders in Washington D.C. (Landover, Maryland), Lions vs. Ravens in Baltimore Week 4: Eagles vs. Buccaneers in Tampa, Jets vs. Dolphins in Miami Week 5: Dolphins vs. Panthers in Charlotte Week 6: Seahawks vs. Jaguars in Jacksonville, Bills vs. Falcons in Atlanta Week 7: Steelers vs. Bengals in Cincinnati, Dolphins vs. Browns in Cleveland Week 8: Buccaneers vs. Saints in New Orleans, Commanders vs. Chiefs in Kansas City Week 9: Broncos vs. Texans in Houston, Cardinals vs. Cowboys in Dallas (Arlington, Texas) Week 10: Ravens vs. Vikings in Minneapolis, Eagles vs. Packers in Green Bay Week 11: Commanders vs. Dolphins in Madrid, Spain Week 12: Buccaneers vs. Rams in Los Angeles (Inglewood, California), Panthers vs. 49ers in San Francisco (Santa Clara, California) Week 13: Falcons vs. Jets in New York (East Rutherford, New Jersey), Giants vs Patriots in Foxborough Week 14: Cowboys vs. Lions in Detroit, Bengals vs. Bills in Buffalo (Orchard Park, New York) Week 15: Raiders vs. Eagles in Philadelphia and Dolphins vs. Steelers in Pittsburgh Week 16: Rams vs. Seahawks in Seattle, Jaguars vs. Broncos in Denver Week 17: Saints vs. Titans in Nashville Following this schedule perfectly would see a fan witness most NFL teams multiple times live, with rare exceptions being the Seattle Seahawks and Tennessee Titans, who need their home games in Weeks 16 and 17 for the fan on this schedule to see Sam Darnold or Cam Ward play. The Miami Dolphins appear the most on the schedule, appearing five times in the first 11 weeks, and with six games overall. Hope this fan enjoys Tyreek Hill and Tua Tagovailoa. Week 18 is a dealer's choice, or the opportunity to rest at home before the postseason after a hectic travel schedule for the entire fall. A few cities would be tougher to travel between than others to make every single game work. Week 3 would see an easy drive up Interstate 95 to visit the home grounds of the Commanders and Ravens in one go. Weekends with Cincinnati and Cleveland, Houston and Dallas, and the greater New York and Boston areas are easily feasible. Other less traditional cities to combine like Kansas City and New Orleans, Seattle and Denver, Jacksonville and Atlanta, as well as Tampa and Miami are on the itinerary. If traveling internationally, for what would be a spectacular, but unneeded game to see all 30 league stadiums, a few fun matchups exist that would help ease travel on the back half of the NFL slate including Jets-Patriots in Massachusetts and Lions-Eagles in Philadelphia.

Raucous scenes at the races as Michael Owen runs riot and bookies duck for cover on Ladies Day at Chester
RAUCOUS scenes unfolded on Ladies Day at Chester's biggest meeting of the year - as Michael Owen ran riot and bookies took a pasting. The England footie legend bagged two big winners on the day, netting him just short of £50,000. 2 Top owner Nick Hughes fell to the floor in joy after seeing the horse he co-owns with Michael Owen win the first race on Ladies Day Credit: ITV Racing 2 The famous Roodee was packed on one of its busiest days of the year Credit: PA And one of his co-owners almost lost his top in the winner's enclosure as he was left on the brink of tears after victory. Boxing royalty Ricky Hatton and Owen's former England team-mate Steve McManaman were soaking up the sunshine at the famous Roodee. But it was little-known Nick Hughes who stole the show. A co-owner with Owen of 8-1 winner-of-the-first Roman Dragon, Hughes was overcome with emotion in a brilliant ITV Racing interview with Sun Racing columnist Matt Chapman. And earlier footage showed him lying on the grass with his shirt round his head and tummy fully exposed as he celebrated in style. Then again, wouldn't you if you'd just seen your horse bag you a cheque for £23,000? Owen's good form continued in the second race when the Hugo Palmer-trained Tricky Tel - named after the former Ballon d'Or winner's dad - won at 5-6 having been backed right in from 6-1. It's not often you feel sorry for the bookies. Most read in Horse Racing But you had to spare a thought for the layers as they saw four of the first five races on the card won by favourites. The 4.10pm, the sixth and penultimate race of the day, was won by the well-backed Paddy The Squire at 4-1., before 10-11 fav Lady Vivian scooped the last. That all came after the first four favourites all won on Wednesday. Those results helped one punter Bookies would have been licking their lips when they saw Ryan Moore struggling on hot fav Mount Kilimanjaro on the Listed Dee Stakes on Thursday. But their rotten run continued - much to the delight of punters - when the jockey showed why so many consider him the best in the world with a ' It wasn't all about the racing, though. A Bookies will be absolutely desperate for some results on Friday, when the £170,000 Chester Cup takes centre stage. The feature race of the week is one of the big betting races of the year and sees 16 races thunder round the tight, twisting track in search of the £86,632 winning prize.
