After reading, i kinda have to agree with it.

it should be nola every year but the whining from the rest of the country,who will never attend a superbowl anyway, would be outrageous

Misleading thread title

Written by the New Orleans Tourism Marketing Corporation!

They need to build a stadium in Vegas so it can host the Super Bowl. It would immediately be tops on these lists, it would be so sick for Super Bowls, Final 4, CFP, college kickoff games, etc.

New Orleans shouldn't host another SB until they prove they can keep the lights on.

New Orleans is easily the best host, but there are some other good options out there. The problem is the weather- most of the warm weather states have fallen trap to the suburban stadium


Chicago, Pittsburgh, and Philadelphia would all be excellent places for the Super Bowl- if it wasn't in February (although it wouldn't really matter this year)


Why Nashville has never hosted is beyond me... seems like it would be a great site

Everyone saying it should rotation between NOLA, LA, and Miami let me say this.

Don't discount these cities.
Glendale, AZ- Never been there but I have friends stationed right there at Luke AFB and they say it's a great place to host a SB and the roof being open last year was great. The only thing is that last year's festivities were too spread out. The NFL Experience was in Downtown Phoenix versus the parking lot of UoPS and there was also happenings in Scottsdale but the lodging and distance to stadium is not as bad as Miami.

Tampa- I'm partial because I lived there for 16 years will move back after I retire from the Air Force. The best Florida city to host a SB compared to Miami. Hotels are not far from the stadium, you have beaches across the bay in Pinellas County, nightlife in Ybor, and the game is sandwiched between Gasparilla and the Florida State Fair. Tampa should be in the regular rotation not Miami, I'm glad that they were chosen for next year's CFP National Championship at RJS.

Indianapolis- Yes they lucked out with mild weather in 2012 for SB XLVI but Lucas Oil Stadium was voted the best stadium in the NFL, it's in the heart of downtown like NOLA and there are bars, restaurants, and hotels everywhere surrounding the stadium. I think they should host every 6 years and the weather shouldn't matter too much. I can't remember the last blizzard that hit that area or Dayton where I live now.

Atlanta- Another city with everything and should be in the regular rotation but that got ruined in 2000 with the freak ice storm. This is what pushed ole Arthur Blank to build the Sphincter Dome.

San Diego- All they need is a new stadium in Downtown next to Petco Park and you have another rotation regular. As long as the city pays for it.

And about the Rose Bowl, I think they should host again versus the Kroenke Dome in Inglewood. Hell, they hosted the game instead of the Coliseum and the Big A five times and all of those Super Bowls made for fantastic pictures. Anyone agree?
