Or how about they play in a different stadium the same market; like a nearby college stadium, baseball stadium, etc. The Lions could play a game at Michigan stadium, the Colts at Notre Dame, the Browns at Ohio State (or the Bengals - not really sure where the team market borders are for OH), Steelers at Penn St., Saints at LSU, etc. Maybe the Patriots at Fenway, the Bears at Wrigley, or the Packers in Milwaukee like they all used to do. One of the NY teams at Yankee stadium. There should be enough for every team to have at least one site for a 17th game every other year when they are the "home" team, and several have multiple locations they could even rotate between (Panthers have several nearby college stadiums and there are countless options for the two TX teams. The CA teams also have lots of options - would love to see the two LA teams have a game every other year in the Coliseum/Rose Bowl).

LA Coliseum has to be up there. Hosted 3 NFL teams, the Dodgers, USC, UCLA, the Olympics twice (and will host it a third time in 2028), various USMNT soccer games, motorcycle racing, the X Games, and a K1 MMA card. And they're having a NASCAR race there next year.

I drove my daughter and her boyfriend to Lausanne for a Red Bull event. They built a downhill ice skating bobsled ski-cross event. The only drink you could buy was Red Bull, and it was at night. i think the next event should be a base jumping event where people jump off cliffs in hockey outfits with baseball gloves and jump into Fenway Park, where combined CFL and NFL defensive backs try to score as many style points on pass interference penalties as they come crashing into the ground. I'd pay for that.

I can't wait to see the Reds in the field of dreams game. Reds-Cubs is a great rivalry even when one or both teams are bad. Not like Reds-Pirates at all. And I'd LOVE to see a Bengals-Ravens (or Bengals-Steelers, with the stripes) longest yard game. That would be SICK and AFC North games belong in a high security area anyway lmao Feels weird having sports to look forward to in Cincinnati. I'm under 30, this is completely foreign to me.

It may be out of scope as only profession sports were mentioned, but what about the Carrier Classic in 2011? Michigan State vs North Carolina on an aircraft carrier (and I think a few others after that). Pretty crazy gimmick game I would say!

Back in 2002 the was a gimmick cricket match at the wales Millennium Stadium now the Principality Stadium. It was Britain vs the rest of the world and it had gimmick run points depending where the ball was hit. 10 runs if went into tire 3, middle tire was 8 and 12 runs if someone hit the roof with the ball since it was played indoors. Only 2 matches where played and never again

When the Braves football team left the stadium that also housed the Braves baseball team, they went to Fenway.... And because both football and baseball team had the same name and said baseball team is a cross town rival, the football team had to change their name to something in line with the Red Sox’s. So they picked Redskins. The Braves baseball team then of course moved to Atlanta.

In the late 1990s NASCAR had an exhibition race in Japan. It was a whole lot of wacky shipping entire NASCAR teams and their equipment by boat from the US to Japan for a road course race. But they did it and was apparently a really big deal for the Japanese automakers as it eventually lead to Toyota joining NASCAR in the mid-2000s.

Also 1988 in Australia, too. And can we add Formula E's indoor races to the list, and NASCAR Australia or Auscar or whatever it was called, running at Mount Panorama? Though I'm more amused FFords ran there for 3 laps per race. And I swear the Packers played an NFL game at a race track didn't they? Also from F1. They had Marlboro sponsored running races at the tracks too. It's that reason that led to Frank Williams being in a wheelchair as well. Though I'd argue F1 having the Indy 500 for a decade was a gimmick race from 1950-1960 or 61. It's led to oddities like Jim Rathmann being an F1 winner when none of the other F1 teams showed up.

Russian MMA promotion M-1 has held the Battle in the Mountains even in the mountains of some disputed province you’ve never heard of since about 2013. Spectacular setting, even if the event is apparently ‘sportswashing’ for whatever screwy stuff is going on in the region. Also, there was the Virginia Tech-Tennessee football game in front of 150,000 people at Bristol Motor Speedway. There were a series of college basketball games on various aircraft carriers, but I believe those ended after several problems with moisture on the courts and it was just too risky. Early in it’s life, the Bellator MMA promotion staged events in public gathering areas like the Power & Light District in Kansas City. Cool atmosphere when there is a hot crowd.
