I noted that Arrowhead has not hosted in at least 30 years. Is that due to the trend towards the big States or wanting to showcase the shiny new Stadiums like So-Fi this year and Raiders Vegas stadium in a couple of years time.
There does not seem to be much fairness in the allocation but you guys are much much longer term followers than me so all insights are welcomed.

The bottom line is this: Rich people don't want to be exposed to bad weather. With one fairly recent exception in NY, the game is never in an outdoor stadium, in a cold winter climate.
