Toronto
The 13-time Stanley Cup–winning Maple Leafs slap the puck around Scotiabank Arena. Every game sells out with fiery fans – hockey is intrinsic to the culture, after all – but a limited number of same-day tickets go on sale through Ticketmaster (www.ticketmaster.ca) at 10am and at the ticket window from 5pm. If you can score a ticket, it's worth the splurge.
You can also buy tickets via the website from season-ticket holders who aren't attending – expect to pay from $80.
