Wouldn’t it be fun to get to one of your favorite NFL team’s big games?

FareCompare’s deal finder has assembled a great list of football towns, so you can easily find cheap flights from your home airport.

College basketball fans will find many of those same cities work for them, too - say, Cincinnati for Xavier/Bengals fans or Chicago for Irish/Bears fans (sure, it’s a 2 hour drive from Chicago but usually cheaper than a flight to South Bend).

Can’t find your city? Don’t worry - FareCompare’s deal finder has you covered: click on “North America” and your city will pop up.

And once we know where the World Series will be played - FareCompare’s deal finder will get you cheap tickets there, too.
