Wikipedia racing

For this game you need two or more players. Each player will need access to the internet and, in particular, Wikipedia.

The game is a race. The aim is to get from the 'start' to the 'destination' before your opponent does.

The game starts with one player clicking 'Random article' in Wikipedia for a start point. The second player clicks 'Random article' and tells the other players the 'destination' article. As soon as the start and destination are known, each player goes to the start article. When all players are ready, play commences and each player clicks Wikipedia links to get to the destination article first. 

For example, player 1 clicks 'Random article' and is taken to the Venice article  (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venice). The other player clicks 'Random article and is taken to the Arsenal football club article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arsenal_Football_Club) as the destination.

Here is a path I found:

1. Starting on the Venice page, click 'Venezia Mestre Rugby FC - rugby team'
2. Click 'rugby union team stubs'
3. Click 'sports team stubs'
4. Click 'British sports team stubs'
5. Click 'United Kingdom football clubs'
6. Click 'English football club stubs'
7. Click '1995-96 Arsenal F.C. season'
8. Click 'Arsenal F.C.

Can you get there using fewer steps?
