KC Super Bowl hosting bid?
Have I missed something the last few years or has KC not put in a bid to host a Super Bowl? With the NFL allowing cold weather games every now and then and the newly renovated stadium is there even the slightest chance they would be granted the big game? Would it be more contingent on us winning a few playoff games or a Super Bowl before be taken seriously?

KC isn't New York. Without a roof, it will never happen.

Our hosting a SB would go about as well as Jacksonville. So no.

Public transportation is nearly non-existent. The stadium is a long way from downtown and without rail, subway, bussing, etc., it would be a logistical nightmare. |

"It is more than just a game now," said Goodell from the owners' meetings in Boston last week. "I keep emphasizing that. This is a week-long event. We have multiple events that need multiple facilities. We are at [a need for] well over 25,000 hotel rooms now." http://www.buffalorumblings.com/2013...t-a-super-bowl |

They have a rule that since the Royals hosted the All Star game last summer, the same city cannot host a Super Bowl until 10 years have passed. They have not started bidding that far ahead yet, but there is a chance KC could be in the mix.

Thanks, and not enough hotels. They are adding more but if Nashville ever gets a domed stadium then there is a chance if they keep building more hotels.

Yea, this sounds like BS. What the **** does the NFL care where the All Star was played?
Not specific to your comment; though we are not New York, what does that matter? It's still the Superbowl. Everyone will come, everyone will watch. KC would be an awesome host city. |
