Well, my main man Matt (aka the “BET THE MORTGAGE” kid) is about to embark on a sports trip of epic proportions this week. As many of you may recall, Matt is an absolute sports fanatic. He lives it. Breathes it. Digests it. Each and every day. Matt loves all sports but football is his pure passion…unless you count the Celtics and Red Sox.
After some intense research, Matt mapped out a road trip that reads like a tall fairy tale. Matt investigated if there was a possible way to attend (3) NFL games during the same game weekend…within driving distance. Are you kidding me? Impossible, right? Well, he figured it out and on Wednesday, he and his Dad hit the road to make it happen.
Thursday
The first leg.
Just a short 556 mile voyage from Boston to Pittsburgh, PA to catch the dreadful New England Patriots play the sneaky Steelers on Thursday night football. No big deal. Quick 9 hour cabin cruise to the 3 Rivers in Pennsylvania. Let’s (NOT) Go Pats!
Sunday
Leg number 2.
After enjoying the Steel City, Matt and Crew will make their way to Baltimore, MD to get a view of the Ravens versus those pesky Los Angelos Rams on Sunday afternoon. A quick 250 mile, 4 hour trek for some Crabcakes and football – that’s what Maryland does!
Tired yet?
Monday
Off to the Big Apple. Only a 200 mile and 3 hour trip north. Pfft…like a speedy jaunt to the grocery store after this week. The New York Football Giants versus the frozen-tundra-behemoth Green Bay Packers. Why not close it out with a bang watching two of the NFL’s oldest and most storied franchises. Well played, Matt.
Wheels up back to Boston right after the final whistle in Rutherford, NJ. Home by dawn. Matt is about to live like a rock star for a few. Kid needs a NIL contract and some Adderall!
Have a blast, my boy, and don’t be shy to ask Uncle Frank if he can maybe jump in on this epic gridiron journey!
P.S. Matt will divulge his football picks throughout the trip! #betthemortgage
Can I Be Frank & Crew?
