Sports fans, brace yourselves. Monday, October 27th is going to be legendary.
Yes, it’s the Sports Equinox.
The Sports Equinox occurs when all the major sports in America play on the same day.
Generally, that’s considered four majors leagues:
NFL (football), MLB (baseball), NBA (basketball), and NHL (hockey).
But this year we have an even more rare equinox occurring with a MLS (soccer) game also being played on that day.
Here’s a look at the details:
NFL: The Monday Night Football game starts around 8:15 p.m. ET (5:15 p.m. PT).
MLB: Game 3 of the 2025 World Series begins 8:00 p.m. ET (5:00 p.m. PT).
NBA: Multiple games begin at 7:00 p.m. ET (4:00 p.m. PT)
NHL: Multiple games begin at 7:00 p.m. ET (4:00 p.m. PT)
MLS: Two games, first round playoffs of Minnesota vs Seattle at 6:00 PM ET (4:00 p.m. PT).
Between roughly 8:15 PM and 8:45 PM ET (5:15 PM and 5:45 PM PT), all five major leagues (NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL, MLS) will have at least one game actively in progress, a true five-sport equinox.
Out of 365 days in 2025, only ONE will feature all five major sports playing simultaneously.
Five sports. One night. Zero chill. It’s beautiful chaos.
Just remember, when your partner asks “What’s happening in the game?”, the correct answer is ‘Which one?’
So grab your remote, fire up your streaming services, and prepare for some serious channel flipping.
