The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are one of the better road-trip teams this season. 6 away cities offer genuine multi-sport weekends — not just NFL series, but weekends where fans can stack games across 5 different leagues.
Chicago leads because it delivers a 3-game, 3-league weekend at the lowest combined ticket cost (US$865 vs US$905 for Detroit). Detroit matches on stack size but costs more.
Tampa home weekends match the best away trip at 3 games — sharing the city with Lightning, Rays — so the case for traveling is about league variety and destination appeal, not raw volume.
Tampa and the road both stack 3 games, but 6 away cities offer multi-sport league mixes worth traveling for.
Strongest attendable game stacks

Trip totals use Premium-tier ticket pricing, hotel for the cluster nights, and round-trip flights for fly-distance routes. Drive-friendly trips (<150 mi) exclude flight cost; medium-distance trips (150–500 mi) show stay + tickets only because travel cost varies by traveler.
Chicago is the clear value play — more games at lower cost. Detroit offers the same stack size at a premium, which only makes sense if the destination itself matters to you. The MLS and NBA and NHL and NCAAFB additions are what separate these from a regular NFL road series.
The benchmark is Tampa home weekends, where Lightning, Rays give you 3 games without a flight. An away trip needs to either beat that stack count, offer leagues Tampa doesn't have, or send you somewhere worth visiting beyond the games.
Chicago leads on pure stacking math: 3 games across 3 leagues in one weekend at US$865 combined. It undercuts Detroit by US$40 on tickets alone. Logistics: direct rail from the airport to the sports district. The NFL anchor is Buccaneers at Chicago Bears, with Chicago Fire FC and Chicago Bulls (MLS, NBA) filling the rest of the weekend. Best for fans chasing league diversity — 3 leagues in one weekend is rare at any price.
Detroit matches Chicago at 3 games but sits second on cost — US$905 vs US$865 keeps it behind. Logistics: compact downtown venue cluster. Buccaneers visit Detroit Lions, adding Detroit Pistons and Detroit Red Wings for the NBA/NHL side of the stack. Best for fans chasing league diversity — 3 leagues in one weekend is rare at any price.
Charlotte closes the multi-sport list with 3 games across 2 leagues. Logistics: compact downtown venue cluster, quick airport access (15 min to venues). Buccaneers visit Carolina Panthers, adding Charlotte Hornets for the NBA side of the stack. A solid option if the dates or matchups fit your schedule better than the top picks.
