Let's Try It Again!



At this point in the week, I thought I would find thousands of answers in the Comments section of the blog entry from earlier this week, "The Big Quiz--Name the Home Sports Facilities of your favourite Pro Teams!"

To date, only 2 replies have been provided!

I promised I would update today on the answers given so far in the quiz...but I am also going to ask all of you again to participate!  So I am extending the date to participate until next Friday, January 28.

The quiz involves naming the rinks, arenas, stadiums, etc. where each of the teams in the "Big Four" major league sport leagues in Canada & the U.S.A calls home. Big Four leagues are NFL Football, MLB Baseball, NHL Hockey & NBA Basketball.

So I am looking for: the name of the league (NBA, NHL, MLB or NFL), the city, the team name (some cities have more than one team in the same league) and the full name their home facility (you can add any nicknames too).

Leave your answers in the Comments section.

Since you are leaving the answers in the Comments section and many others can see what has already been posted...this is a "cooperative quiz"; you may be able to "fill in the blanks" for some answers missing.

To help you out, here is how many facilities you need to name for each of the 4 leagues:

NFL: 31 (two teams share the same home facility)
MLB: 30
NBA: 29 (two teams share the same home facility)
NHL: 30

The answers provided to date are:

Toronto Maple Leafs (NHL) play out of the Air Canada Centre
Toronto Blue Jays (MLB) call the Rogers Centre home

So as you can see, many more answers for you to add!  So have some fun and participate today!
