The NFL is looking to add Antartica, Siberia, and a place called hell, Norway to the list of future superbowl sites... because apparently New Jersey and Minnesota aren't &^%$# cold enough!!
If I’m gonna drop 10 thousand dollars, take time off work and jump on a plane to go to the Super Bowl in February, it sure as hell isn’t gonna be to freeze my butt off in Minnesota all week.They should just play it in Hawaii or San Diego every year.
@Zipi, for the next couple of years, no they don’t—the Dome has been torn down and the Vikings are borrowing the Gophers’ open air stadium. (I hope the frigid air will improve their game.) The Super Bowl is coming only once the glitzy new enclosed stadium goes up, though.
I am surprised to see how many football fans have become soft, coddled creatures who can’t handle a little cool weather. (By which I mean -50 Fahrenheit and gale force winds.)

And we all know football is supposed to be played in 70 degree weather under bright, sunny skies.

Blah, blah blah…. Minnesota gets cold in the winter. It snows as well. Get over it. We did.

Nice side swipe at New York City which doesn’t have a football stadium
