Pilgrimage: a journey, esp. a long one, made to some sacred place as an act of religious devotion.
There is no better way to define my relationship with sport, religious devotion. And what better way to proclaim your devotion than take a pilgrimage? So here they are, in no particular order, the 10 sports pilgrimages I intend to complete in my life.
1) Attend a baseball game at every Major League Baseball stadium in the bleachers.
2) Tailgate at and attend a Big Ten football game at each of the 12 schools in a single season.
3) Spend 5 days at both the Summer and Winter Olympics and attend one event a day.
4) A World Cup Championship Match.
5) Go to all the Baseball All-Star Game events. The Home Run Derby, the celebrity soft-ball match and of course the game itself.
6) The Super Bowl.
7) To compete in the 24 Hours of Moab.
8) Spend the weekend watching the F1 Grand Prix Italy from the pits.
9) Ride along with a support vehicle in the Dakar Rally.
10) Be at the opening and closing ceremonies of the America's Cup.
