I saw the Bears on a United 757 out of PVD for a Patriots game 2 years ago. I also saw the Lions on a NW 757 out of ORD this last Sunday. It was weird watching their long snapper take a few practice snaps on the Signature ramp in a suit and tie. I was flying during the game so I didn't get a chance to see if he botched a snap and that is why he was practicing on the ramp. It was a pretty weird scene for me while I was picking up my outbound clearance.

My GF flew a UA plain old 320 for the White Sox to Tampa the night they beat the Twins. But that was a one time flight that popped up in open trips. Had to fly from ORD - MDW to pick them up. Barely got off the ground before landing!

The Buffalo Bills use Delta. I was in CLE the monday after the Bill's Browns game last year when their 767 slid off the taxiway and into the mud. The team got a bus to take them back to Buffalo.
