I have kinda changed my mind lately that a roof would even get KC a SB.

Would be cool but not cool enough to do anything special for. I think other events like the final 4 are more of a reason for a roof.

Dallas has a roof and will probably not get a second SB because the weather was so terrible during the first one.

I'm sure they'll get another but that Arlington location is a bigger detractor than weather imo

My guess is that the Hunts don’t really care about hosting a super very much relative to their desire to be able have more revenue streams and more premium price increases.

the bitching on NBA twitter about the All Star game in Indy this year and the possibility of Milwaukee in the 3 years does give me pause

We might get a Final 4 with a roof, 2038 will be the 50th anniversary from the last one in kc

Again, don't care if KC ever hosts a Final Four.

Am I in line with most average KC fans that I don't really care if a Super Bowl is ever in KC? Doesn't move the needle much for me.

Super Bowl should not be north of Dallas.

I disagree. It's quite close to DFW, and there are plenty of hotels and a huge entertainment district right there. It's tailor-made for big events. Have you been there lately?

Did they ever connect DART or whatever it's called from DFW to Jerry's World?

I don't think so, no. You can get kind of close by connecting with a different rail system, but it would be much, much easier to drive down I-30.

I was just (correctly) assuming that most people attending the SB would be flying into DFW then renting a car or grabbing a ride share for a breezy 15 minute drive to the Jerry World complex. It's not like it would be mostly or even noticeably Dallas people (unless the Cowboys were in it. So, no).

Maybe I misunderstood your point?

I'm thinking about what you mean by "without a car". That was my exact scenario. Fly in, take a 15-minute Uber to your hotel in the Jerry World complex, and walk to the game. When not at the Super Bowl, enjoy the Texas Live district, which is also right there and walkable. I'm also thinking about recent Super Bowl sites, and I'm scratching my head to understand your meaning.
