Super Bowl At Gillette? No Thanks

...Here's another thing to consider: many if not most fans attending a Super Bowl get in their rental cars once the game ends, drive to the airport, and fly home. Knowing what traffic is like in the parking lots and on Route One after a typical Pats game in Foxboro, I can't begin to imagine how many people would miss their flights.

I don't think this is right. I've been to 4, and I never flew back that night. In fact, the only people I knew who did fly back the night of the game were flying private.

The only problem is God has that city in his cross-hairs. Hurricane, oil spill ... a plague of locusts could be next.

I think the Super Bowl should rotate between Houston, New Orleans, Dallas, Miami, Tampa and Phoenix. You need to have it in a warm-weather locale.

Did you go to SB38? I thought Houston was a pretty lame spot for it -- downtown was too packed and closed early, and the good spots post-game were so few that they gouged the crowds.

NO and Miami work.

Phoenix? eh... I guess there's enough golf and resort hotels for it to be good. I thought it paled in comparison with NO, but it was better than Houston and JAX.
