Can anyone explain why Cleveland gets to have the Rock n Roll hall of fame and not New Orleans?

Ohio and Cleveland provided way more in financial incentives. The public reason announced was that the so-called first rock n' roll disc jokey (and promoter), Allen Freed, hailed from Cleveland. If La and the city had met or exceeded what Ohio/Cleveland offered, it would have been in NO.

New Orleans would be capitol to a different type of music than rock

Cosimo Matassa and Dave Bartholomew are as responsible for rock and roll as anyone in the country,
and it would make sense for the HOF
to be located in New Orleans…
