You might think that a bucket list for a blog called 30 Plus Teams , 30 Plus Dreams would mean just visiting or doing things in cities in Canada and the United States that have teams in all four of the major professional sports .
You might be partially right .
There are cities in both countries that I would like to see and they DON’T have any of the four major sports teams in their cities .
They are, however , close enough though that if you wanted to make a side trip while on your own 30 Plus Teams Tour , you could .
