Future Super Bowls could be played outside the USA

[DC_fan]

There is speculation that future Super Bowls could be played outside the USA. Like in England.

I was reading a story today about the Super Bowl and the author was quite keen to mention that in about 5 years time he believes it will happen. Not the first time I have heard this.

awesome

That it would be.

The only reason I don't see that happening is the weather. It would be too hot.

Not for a while I think, the American public would go nuts.

Tickets are already $500 a pop, f**k they'd be making so much money from the country wanting to host it.

not a chance in hell it would happen.... the biggest day in american sport and its played in another country, it would be like the the nrl/afl finals being played in the USA

Somehow I think the fact it would need to be played at 10am on a Monday would also prove a problem.

its a pipe dream i know but im going to dream

i for one would move heaven and earth to go to a SB

Stupid idea, should NEVER happen. Just as a dumb as moving the NRL GF outside of NSW...

 

[Jono1987]

Can't see this realistically happening...

I'd love for the NFL to bring a game out here, similiar to what they do in England. Even if it was a pre-season game I'd still definitely go. I know they brought out a game once to ANZ stadium. Can't remember that circumstances of the situation though.

Money talks a million languages.

If an overseas city come up with the right offer I am pretty sure that the NFL will atleast listen.

What you need to remember is that cost of going to the Super Bowl has priced most americans out of getting a ticket. So they sit back and enjoy the TV coverage. So where tha game is played matters little to most people there.

unless your one of the 2 teams supporters that have to spend Thousands to watch the game... plus like i said as if you move
American's Biggest Sporting day out of the country people will riot

We should be trying to pick up a Pre Season match though

Back on Aug 7th, 1999 Denver played San Diego here in Sydney in a pre season game.

agreed

be interresting to see if they actually had a world cup challenge type game that they could play in other countries so they dont have a mortgage on their self appointed title of world champions much like their world series, they dont allow other teams in yet still call themselves world champions

 

[canberra_raiders2k2]

What about timezones and etc, the largest TV audience is in USA, too much to risk over a format that is working so good at the moment. The SB at least in AU is watchable compared to the EPL...kills my life waiting for 2am games.

pffft, yeah right
