Houston is the most diverse large city in America and its sporting support reflects that more than most.
The local sports scene
The scene
The Astros have been the constant of the last decade, with a World Series in 2017 and another in 2022. The Rockets won back-to-back titles in the mid-nineties and are rebuilding around a young roster. The Texans are the newest NFL franchise in the league. The Dynamo have two MLS Cups.
Rivalries that matter
Astros–Rangers is the state rivalry. Texans–Colts and Texans–Titans are divisional. In college football, the Houston–Rice game is one of the oldest in Texas.
Where to watch
Midtown and Washington Avenue before games; EaDo around the soccer and baseball venues.
