In the history of North American major professional
sports league championships (which include the NFL, MLB, NBA and NHL), a city/metropolitan
area has been home to multiple championships in a season seventeen times.
Detroit is the only city to have more than two major
league championship teams in a season.
Philadelphia is the only city to have all four major
sports teams play in their respective championship games or series in the
same season (1980), though only one of the four actually won the championship.
