Roger Goodell turned heads when at a recent fan forum in England he said that staging the Super Bowl in London was something that 'has been discussed' and 'is not impossible.'
This time it wasn’t even tied to London getting an expansion franchise, which would at least make some sense. This was a stand-alone deal as the NFL has continued to play more games outside of the United States.NFL executive vice president Peter O’Reilly quickly clarified the league’s thinking by saying a London Super Bowl is “not a near-term focus of ours. The focus as it relates to the Super Bowl is on NFL cities in the U.S.
Not every NFL city can host the Super Bowl. Green Bay, for example, can’t handle the influx for a regular season game, let alone something of this scale. Weather concerns remain for non-domed facilities after the 2014 game played at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey avoided a major snowstorm by just one day.
One of the beauties of the Super Bowl is the financial impact spreads out. It’s not just major hotels or convention centers but Uber drivers and bartenders and locals who rent their house out on AirBNB.
