I don't think KC has the infrastructure and hotels necessary to host a Super Bowl, and unlike Jacksonville they can't just bring in a bunch of cruise ships and make them makeshift hotels.

I'm an air traffic controler who works the airspace over San Diego and let me tell you, it was nuts! We had planes landing at Lindberg, Navy North Island, Montgomery, Gillespie and Palomar and Brown Field. KCI has a nice layout to handle increased traffic, but I think they lack the necessary amount of satellite airports to handle the amount of smaller air traffic.
After everybody left San Diego we had a five hour snap shot of departures out of the area which basically had three lines of airplanes eminating out of San Diego: One north to the Bay Area (the loser's trail) one to Tampa Bay (the winner's trail), and one towards New York (the money trail).
