Having never been to the US other than Seattle when as a kid, I know very little about the places in America other than the obvious ones (new York, LA, miami etc).

Can you describe the town/city of each of the 32 teams using 1 word or phrase?

Here's a ready made template:

New England -
Miami -
Buffalo -
New York -
Baltimore -
Pittsburgh -
Cincinatti -
Cleveland -
Oakland -
Denver -
Kansas city -
San Diego -
Indianapolis -
Jacksonville -
Houston -
Tennessee (only a state right?) -
Dallas -
Philadelphia -
Washington -
Carolina (state again right?) -
Tampa bay -
Atlanta -
New Orleans -
Seattle -
LA -
San Francisco -
Arizona (state I know!) -
Detroit -
Green bay / wisconsin -
Chicago -
Minnesota -

Good luck!

Good start, parsh; but I was hoping for 1 per location. Not so fussed about NY/LA etc as I know them. Would love to know about the more unusual places.

KC = BBQ (the best BBQ in the US)
Green Bay = Beer and Cheese (these two always go together. don't believe me. try beer cheese soup.)
