In 2014, the Super Bowl will be held in New Jersey, at the Meadowlands Stadium. From ESPN: "The New Meadowlands Stadium, the $1.6 billion jewel co-owned by the New York Giants and Jets, will host the 2014 Super Bowl, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell announced Tuesday afternoon at the league's spring meeting.
"It's a historic moment for the league," Goodell said.
Saying that New York is a unique market, Goodell added: "It will be a great experience for our fans. It will be a great experience for the NFL."
The league's 32 owners, undaunted by the prospect of a wintry championship game, awarded Super Bowl XLVIII to the New York/New Jersey region after also considering bids from Tampa and South Florida, both traditional sites. South Florida and Tampa have hosted the Super Bowl 10 and four times, respectively." http://sports.espn.go.com/new-york/nfl/news/story?id=5219486
The average temps for that region is the mid 20's to around 30. But since the game will be held in the evening and at night, it will be much cooler. Maybe the NFL is hoping for some global warming by 2014.
So, if the Packers are going win another Super Bowl, shoot for 2014 because if they have to play a team from the South, like Miami, the Pack will be a shoo in for the Lombardi Trophy.
It will be pretty cool to have a blizzard on Super Bowl Sunday. I wonder who the half time presentation will be? Cool and the Gang? I'm pretty sure the Beach Boy's won't get it. My guess it will be Bruce Springsteen or Bon Jovi.
So, 2014 may be the year of the Packers.
