Future Super Bowl sites awarded

spike : 5/24/2016 5:16 pm
"The Super Bowl will return to the Los Angeles area for the first time in almost 30 years.

The NFL announced the sites of three future Super Bowls on Tuesday, awarding Super Bowl LV to the Los Angeles Rams' new stadium project in Inglewood. The game will be played in February 2021.

It was also announced that the new Atlanta stadium will host Super Bowl LIII in 2019 and South Florida will get Super Bowl LIV in 2020.

But the crown jewel of these games awarded was L.A. and its return to the league this offseason."

The vote was made by the NFL owners at meetings in Charlotte, N.C. Los Angeles, which has an NFL franchise again for the first time since the 1994 season, was a heavy favorite to land one of the three games up for bid, and it reached the super majority over Tampa on the first vote — there was no doubt. The L.A. bid was only a voting option for Super Bowl LV, the first year it was technically allowed to host the event because of league bylaws.

The next two Super Bowls will be played in Houston and Minneapolis.

or did the NFL award LV to LA specifically because they the letters themselves look so similar and they basically have a ready built logo?

If that was the case, they should have waited until the Raiders move to Las Vegas.
