Best Road Trip Games for 2021
The 2020 season was not generous for the Philadelphia Eagles or their fans. Along with a 4-11-1 record, fan attendance was very limited this season due to the global pandemic. There were only two instances where the Eagles could have fans at home games before closing the stadium for good again. To go with that, fans were stripped of the opportunity to see their team on the road and visit different stadiums of opposing teams. Even if you want to say fans wouldn’t want to see them anyway, it’s still a fun experience for fans to go see their favorite team on the road and visit a different city. Hopefully, we get back to normalcy and are able to go to games in 2021, at home and on the road. With their 2021 opponents already released, here are the three best games to plan an Eagles road trip for in 2021.
Denver Broncos
Although they aren’t the best of teams to go on the road and see next year, Denver alone would be an interesting city to go see in 2021. Empower Field at Mile High is a different atmosphere for teams to travel to. The high altitude and cold atmosphere present challenges to teams as this stadium hits different than others. At the stadium, you can visit the Ring of Fame Plaza and look at the all-time great Broncos like John Elway, Terrell Davis and Shannon Sharpe. If you really want to make a trip out of it, Rocky Mountain National Park is less than 90 minutes away from the Broncos home stadium. Make it a memorable trip and check both of these sites off of your bucket list for places to see.
Carolina Panthers
Carolina is an amazing place to visit year round. The Panthers games at Bank of America Stadium look just as amazing. The last time the Philadelphia Eagles traveled to Carolina was 2017 for a Thursday night game, which ended up being a win. The atmosphere and energy that came from the stadium looked amazing when watching on TV. Although neither team might not be as good as they once were in 2017, the energy for that game should still be very high and the fans should be very involved. If you want more than football, Carolina has plenty to offer. There’s a ton of museums, bars and restaurants to visit, along with a chance to ride the Segways around the stadium. Carolina would be a great trip for you to plan for the 2021 season.
Las Vegas Raiders
The top road trip game for 2021 and everyone else is fighting for second. The Raiders got a raw deal last season as they made the move to Las Vegas and opened up their beautiful new home, Allegiant Stadium. Unfortunately, fans weren’t there to take in the true experience of a game. What better way to christen their first season with an invasion of Eagles fans? While we’re at it, make an entire week out of it, there’s never nothing to do in Las Vegas. Go visit the Las Vegas Strip, do some gambling, go see a show, do anything. There’s plenty of activities to do in Sin City leading up to the Eagles game.
