major Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 Super Bowl 50 will be a historic milestone for the NFL. That got me thinking - where will this iconic game be held? I lean towards Los Angeles (LA COLISEUM or new LA venue). Where do you think the host city will be?
Buffalo Barbarian Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 went with San Fran, need some place new.
justnzane Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 went with San Fran, need some place new. why not put in the Metro-stadium, or the Ralph since they are just of big of dumps as Candlestick? Besides, the weather would be more appropriate. You know blizzard with a chance of wardrobe malfunction.

Besides, the weather would be more appropriate. You know blizzard with a chance of wardrobe malfunction. Superbowl XIX was held in Palo Alto (Stanford stadium), so the Bay Area isn't new to the game. They just haven't done it there in over 25 years. I'd doubt the NFL would have it in Candlestick, either. Personally, I like the Rose Bowl in Pasadena. The weather usually isn't an issue in SoCal, it's outdoors, and the place seats about 100,000+.
bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 I voted Buffalo. Be easy to get a ticket and will be a home victory for the Bills
NoSaint Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 At this point cities are working on proposals - who is actually submitting?

That's just it, the NFL league office is full of wusses if every Super Bowl is to be played in a sterile environment. Would Janet Jackson's mega-booby have made an appearance if the Super Bowl was at the Ralph or Lambeau? Hell no. The fact that the NFL discriminates against northern teams and derprives them of hosting a championship is downright wrong. It is the only professional league that does such a thing. Frankly, NFL owners should take the lead from European soccer stadiums where the put a roof over the fans and leave the field open to the elements. Just think of a more open version of the old Cowboys Stadium where the players can still play in a rain, sleet, snow and cold. This would be the ideal for a new Bills stadium imo,
AReed Deep For 7 Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 went with San Fran, need some place new. considered one of the worst stadiums in the nfl. i too want to see the outdoor superbowl though
NoSaint Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 considered one of the worst stadiums in the nfl. i too want to see the outdoor superbowl though Maybe a renovation package in exchange for the game? Might help keep the team there. Not sure what construction time on a new stadium would be either. Though possible. Doing the renovation route in new Orleans right now.eliminated my seats and still waiting to find out where I'll sit... Have to pay this week regardless though ::shaking my head::
San Jose Bills Fan Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 London, England.... Intriguing. How's the weather in Jan/Feb? Are you envisioning Wembley? If so, does the roof close all the way?
VirginiaMike Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 Maybe Phoenix -- new stadium there and great weather.
Mark Vader Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 went with San Fran, need some place new. When the new 49'ers stadium is built in Santa Clara, they will get a Super Bowl. Although it probably will not be Super Bowl 50.
VirginiaMike Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 London, England.... Interesting thought, but I don't like it and thew TV networks won't wither. In order to get the game in prime time as they desire the game would need to kick-off at 11:00pm or midnight in England. Since many normal, middle class fans can't afford to go to a Super Bowl I'm not worried about who would attend. Overall, this idea smells bad.
May Day 10 Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 Itll be in LA I think (the site of Super Bowl I.)
Marv's Neighbor Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 How's the weather in Jan/Feb? The same as in March thru December....Drizzle & Fog, Fog & Drizzle! You don't get a sun tan there, you rust!
AxelRipper Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 I'm calling it to be in LA as an homage to the first one, plus by then they might have their shiny new stadium
