Here? Meaning Jacksonville? I seem to recall what a nightmare it was when the Pats played there for the Super Bowl.Honestly, they should just rotate the SB between here, Houston, and Sofi
That was 18 years ago and included a Pats win anyway. Jays have made improvements to the stadium. Most notably a pool.Here? Meaning Jacksonville? I seem to recall what a nightmare it was when the Pats played there for the Super Bowl.
Not talking about the game itself or stadium. The city is too small to properly support the Super Bowl and I don't think it has changed considerably in 18 years.That was 18 years ago and included a Pats win anyway.
Aren't Jacksonville and Houston considered by pretty much everyone to be the two worst warm weather areas to host Super Bowls?It's probably already the best football stadium in FL.This will make it even more so.
If TLaw and Etienne continue to develop, this will be a destination place to watch a game.

Yea, they may get another SB as part of the package to get a new stadium, but I believe its known as a 3rd rate SB destination.Aren't Jacksonville and Houston considered by pretty much everyone to be the two worst warm weather areas to host Super Bowls?
I for one am always looking for a nice place to take a dip while watching an NFL game in person.That was 18 years ago and included a Pats win anyway. Jays have made improvements to the stadium. Most notably a pool.
San Diego is not an NFL city anymore.Yea, they may get another SB as part of the package to get a new stadium, but I believe its known as a 3rd rate SB destination.

Are you drunk? Like seriously, WTF?It's probably already the best football stadium in FL.This will make it even more so.

These are not the three I would have picked.Are you drunk? Like seriously, WTF?
Jacksonville and Houston are two of the worst cities I’ve ever been to. Houston especially.These are not the three I would have picked.
Etienne will be toast by the time this stadium is built.If TLaw and Etienne continue to develop, this will be a destination place to watch a game.
Savannah and even St Augustine are way nicer than Orlando, how did you make that call?I have been to Jacksonville for medical care (my wife had surgery at the Mayo Clinic). Horrible city. Tough to find a good place to eat or watch a movie. Also terrible hotels.
We ended up driving to Orlando for a few days to spend her recovery period there and drove back for the follow up appointment. Absolutely not a place I would like to visit by choice.
My wife also spent some time in Houston (her mother was getting treated at MDAnderson). Not as terrible as Jacksonville but not ideal either.

It's what we Latin tourists knew and it was a 1.5 hour drive.Savannah and even St Augustine are way nicer than Orlando, how did you make that call?
I used to fly that airport a lot to Providence.It's what we Latin tourists knew and it was a 1.5 hour drive.
Got a nice rate on a Marriott close to Disney and drove. (plus we flew into MCO to get to Jacksonville).
BTW every time I think of Jacksonville I remember the "Non international airport" from The Good Place
Indeed! Atlantic Beach is the best public beach on the east coast imho.Jax beaches are good
Vero. South Beach (not Miami)Indeed! Atlantic Beach is the best public beach on the east coast imho.
Bingo!!’We ended up parking right next to the Stadium since they didn’t even setup the perimeter until like 1pm and just tailgated and hung out which was fun.
Jax is the largest continental US city by area. (874 sq. mi)I agree that Jacksonville is not an ideal host city, it just isn't all that big, isn't an airport hub, etc., but who is to say it couldn't be with that kind of influx of cash.
Anaconda, Montana is next. Too bad they don't have an NFL team. Super Bowl could be there.Jax is the largest continental US city by area. (874 sq. mi)

I flew BWI-JAX a number of times for work travel to Brunswick, GA. It was easier than flying to Savannah.I used to fly that airport a lot to Providence.
I think I had to connect in Baltimore a fair amount of times. I preferred it to Tallahassee-Atlanta-Green/Logan. I was broke so Southwest was probably cheapest those years because I would definitely not do that drive now just to fly out of Jax.I flew BWI-JAX a number of times for work travel to Brunswick, GA. It was easier than flying to Savannah.
I think Jacksonville is the only place I've ever been to a Waffle House, before Waffle House was cool.
That's all I got.
Who would want another Super Bowl (Edited) in New York? Pick the wrong weekend and it's a shitshow weather wise.Yea, they may get another SB as part of the package to get a new stadium, but I believe its known as a 3rd rate SB destination.

Some people say that.I'm sorry, did you just refer to the Super Bowl as a Soupy?
And / or get a pie to the faceSome people say that.
They should absolutely stop.
Plus a kick to the genitals.And / or get a pie to the face
The Super Bowl is in Vegas this season. And Santa Clara should be somewhere on the list because they just got Super Bowl 60.Yea, they may get another SB as part of the package to get a new stadium, but I believe its known as a 3rd rate SB destination.

Maybe they have to if they get (I think it is the rumor) the SB in 2026... but then I can't see them getting it again until all the others, plus any new stadiums built, gets theirs. And that includes some tier 3s?Does SF/Santa Clara slot into Tier 2?
If Indy, you may as well add MN.the super bowl should be
LA ZONA LV SF HOU INDY NO ATL and TB
good point i do like Minn stadiumIf Indy, you may as well add MN.
Tampa is not that good. The weather is good but the stadium is not that nice and it’s not exactly in an excellent location. It’s fine.
I was lucky enough to go to a bunch of Super Bowls with my job in a former life. Jacksonville was by far the worst, not ready for prime time city I went to. There weren't nearly enough hotel rooms, so to stay somewhere within an hour, we stayed on a docked cruise ship. If it sounds glamorous, it wasn't. Nothing on the ship was open, the rooms are tiny, and it's a pain in the ass to get on and off. And hotel room availability was only one problem with the city. I despise Houston as a city, and it wasn't a very good Super Bowl location, but it was way better. Detroit is Detroit, but it was way better. Seriously, Jacksonville should never host a Super Bowl again.We went to the Jacksonville Pats Super Bowl and it was terrible. We had to fly into Orlando and drive. We got to Jacksonville at 10am I believe and had to ask a cop where to go for the Super Bowl. It was completely dead, like Hartford at night dead. We ended up parking right next to the Stadium since they didn’t even setup the perimeter until like 1pm and just tailgated and hung out which was fun. I can’t imagine being there for 3 days for it. The game was awesome but Jacksonville was a joke.

Sure, just not a football stadium.But ... should it get a new stadium?
