Newport International Polo
Tranquilly set amid the stone barns and walls of the 100-acre Glen Farm (established in the 1600s), bring a picnic basket for a fieldside tailgate and watch the US team take on Egypt, Jamaica and other Olympic-caliber squads. Crowds aren’t large and you’ll be close enough to hear snorting horses and walloping mallets. The season runs from May to September.

New England Patriots
The three-time Super Bowl champs play football in a new state-of-the-art stadium that’s just 50 minutes south of Boston, but it’s hard to get a ticket (most seats are sold to season-ticket holders). From I-93, take I-95 south to Rte 1. Otherwise, direct trains go to Foxborough (off Map p71) from South Station.
