9/10 through the second page. Biggest 3 team city is all that's left

5: NYC, Denver
4: Houston, Detroit
3: ______, Cleveland
2: Baltimore, Buffalo
1: San Diego or SA, Green Bay

Fwiw, I would never have gotten either 3 team city, Baltimore, or San Diego.


Not to be too nitpicky, but wouldn't Orange County, CA be the largest metro area with 2 sports teams? I definitely consider it its own metro area much like San Jose.

Somewhat related, but the Inland Empire area ought to be considered (easily) the largest metro area without any pro sports team. I believe Austin, Virginia Beach/Norfolk, and Louisville are next on that list.

Yep, the list goes Riverside, Austin, VA Beach (never would have guessed this one), Providence, Richmond, and Louisville.

CA is so tricky, but Anaheim is considered part of LA while San Jose is not considered part of SF and is instead its own MSA. I have no idea how these distinctions are drawn.
