Sports fans loving debating which city in the United States lays claim to being the true ‘Title Town.’ Real ones know there is only one true answer to this question: the city with the most championships.
Below, we break down the 15 U.S. cities with the most championships across the four major leagues: NFL, NBA, MLB, and NHL. It is worth nothing that the NFL championships totals include the pre-Super Bowl Era and the NBA titles also include the ABA. These were included because those cities still claim those titles.
