Super Bowl III Host City Bidding

[Piercewise1]

This season's upcoming Super Bowl needs a home! SimNFL administration is now accepting proposals for a Host City for the upcoming Super Bowl III. Respond to this thread with your proposal by Sunday, July 28^th to be considered for a fabulous prize!

Any user can submit one proposal for any North American city. You may use any form(s) of media you like (written word, pictures, even video), but the best proposals will be earnest, engaging, and snappy – this is your ad pitch to the league’s executives! Feel free to highlight the best tourist destinations, local restaurants, sports history, landmarks…whatever you think would help draw people in. Put on your best Harold Hill impersonation and dazzle us! Just please keep things relatively SFW.

Once the deadline has passed, site admins and myself will select a winner. That user will receive a Tier 1 Discord subscription for the 2025 season, on the commission’s tab (or a promotion to Tier 2 if already a Tier 1 subscriber). Discord subscriptions unlock an exclusive channel just for members, digital swag like custom site logos, and featured media from one of our great content creators! So pull out all the stops and make your pitch the best it could possibly be!

I look forward to all your creative submissions.

Eagan, Minnesota

@Bundy and the Minnesota Vikings have submitted a proposal to host Super Bowl III during a combined Tuesday evening council meeting of Minneapolis and St, Paul's main political and business leaders in Eagan. 

"Minneapolis and the greater Twin Cities area is the premier destination of the North," noted the Governor of Minnesota. "There's only a handful of cities, few and far between, that offer the excellent four seasons experience and American legacy like we have here."

Minnesota Vikings executive @Bundy notably brought a postseason college bowl game to US Bank Stadium during the 2022 college football season, the first ever iteration of the traveling Northern Lights Bowl, which saw a surprising sellout crowd for the 6-6 Utah State and Wisconsin football teams. There's been growing anticipation of the Twin Cities metro area to host more midwinter football events, and the elite stadium saw no issues in hosting the bowl game despite frigid temperatures outdoors.

"The Minneapolis Skyway consists of over 10 miles of enclosed walking paths that harbor locals and tourists alike when the weather outside favors indoor travel," said a lead tourism official. "Accommodations to all include a wide variety of food options. Want to get a light sandwich lunch, and then close your day with a steak dinner, or something more 'exotic' to the midwestern palate, like sushi, pho, or African influenced meals? We've got it. Plenty of well regarded and recognized hotels also connect via the Skyway, so you can go from your room, to shopping, to eating, and more, all without stepping outside." 

Other key attractions of the Twin Cities area include easy access to destinations such as the Mall of America, (currently underwater, so it's like a waterpark!) ValleyFair, and dozens of museums, as well as bountiful arts and entertainment, including the renowned Guthrie Theater.

In addition to your typical game day eats of burgers, wings, pretzels, and beers, a proposed Super Bowl-specific menu for the stadium includes a variety of Minnesotan and Midwestern cuisine. 

 

PLZ CONSIDER MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA FOR SBIII 

(especially since our committee clearly had the best bid last year 

 and we were WRONGLY slighted by the LEAGUE on our proposal, were the only two proposals were ours and Mexico City, and then it was hosted in Las Vegas of all places. Do they even know what whitefish is in Vegas???)
