NFL owners sent a strong message Tuesday with its awarding of three future Super Bowl sites: If you build it, they will come.
In results that surprised absolutely no one, owners voted Tuesday to play the 2019, 2020 and 2021 Super Bowls in Atlanta, Miami and Los Angeles, respectively. New Orleans and Tampa Bay, the other cities that were considered, have not undertaken any major stadium projects.
Atlanta and L.A. are building stadiums at costs of more than $1 billion – estimates have the L.A. construction exceeding $2.6 billion as the world’s most expensive stadium. Meanwhile, Miami owner Stephen Ross put up $500 million for renovations to the Dolphins’ stadium, highlighted by a partial roof.
