Only disagreement I really have is the placement of the Rose Bowl. For the era it was hosting Pro Ball, it was regarded as one of the best stadiums globally. So by that thinking, I’d put it in “Good for its era.” Good video btw 👍🏻
Why does New Orleans always seem to host the SB you ask. Its because New Orleans is a major party city and the NFL wants a festive atmosphere for the SB.
Everything is clustered nicely in New Orleans. Not like Houston and Atlanta where you drive on a beltway for miles and miles to get anywhere only to get stuck in massive traffic jams.
Yeah, I don't understand why it is so difficult for this guy to understand that. New Orleans is a great city with a great downtown area and a ton of hotels. Not that complicated
Exactly. If the Superdome was in Philly, Denver, or Cincinnati, it might get a token Super Bowl early in its life before being relegated to an afterthought. Unless the place is falling apart, the Superdome will see Super Bowls for a long, long time.
I suspect New Orleans got so many Super Bowls because the NFL figured they could safely bank on it as a neutral field as the Saints were never a threat to get there for about 40 years. You do notice that since Drew Brees and Sean Payton showed up, the Saints have gone from hosting every 4-5 years to over a decade.
Jon Smith Vikings was the closest teams ever to host and play the Super Bowl in their new stadium. Unfortunately they lost to Eagles in the Championship game
Cadolots That’s an interesting point. When I have time I need to go down the list and see how many teams came within one game of playing a Super Bowl at home.
Actually, Brees and Peyton arrived at the same time many cities were building new stadiums and getting rewarded with Super Bowl games for building them. Has nothing to do with the Saints level of success. The city gets so many because you can walk to anything and it is the best festival, party, music and food combo city in America.
@@Wingnutcaseman It's only the 2017 Vikings and 2020 Buccaneers. Vikes were the first to make it beyond the Divisional Round same year their stadium hosted and the Bucs became the first to play (and win) in their home.
As someone who lives in New Orleans, the only explanation I can offer as to why we keep getting Super Bowls is instead a question: have you ever visited us? Most people who have had a lot of fun. Some of those visitors were football executives who said some version of "Hey, New Orleans was awesome. We should go back. Let's have the Super Bowl there so we can go back." Keep making these videos, man. Good stuff.
It helps that everything is centrally located as well. All of the major hotels and sites like Harrah's, the French Quarter, Frenchman Street and St. Charles Avenue are all close by the Superdome and easy to get to.
And the Steelers were the designated home team I think. I believe the AFC is the “home” team in even numbered games and the NFC is the “home” team in odd numbered games
@@lord_beethoven1169 I know, that's why it's not an actual home game but pretty close (it's in the same city) like the 49ers playing the Super Bowl in Stanford Stadium.
I remember when the 49ers were at Kezar Stadium in Golden Gate Park. Probably one of the smaller NFL stadiums even then. Still it was designed just for football and had some great views of the city skyline. Candlestick was great for baseball but the football layout looked too much like the square peg in a round hole.
The 49ers weren’t the only team to play in a semi home game. The Rams in Super Bowl XIV was essentially a home game. They still played in the coliseum that season. The Rose Bowl is less than ten miles from their home that year.
Thanks. I was going to mention that but you saved me the trouble. Home field advantage might have been some help to the Rams in that they kept the game close when everyone was expecting them to lose in a blowout. For the 49ers, it didn't matter, although about 40,000 fans who didn't have tickets, crowded around Standford Stadium so they could be close to the action.
The Miami Orange Bowl, a historical venue that hosted multiple Super Bowls including Superbowl III , no longer exist so that a baseball stadium could be built that even the local fans don't want to attended.
@@DNSKansas It was falling apart TBT, The U could have partnered with the Dolphins to build a new facility near identical to Hard Rock Stadium. Missed opportunity for the putrid "Jeffrey Loria Hazing Experiment"
The Miami Orange Bowl finished its legacy as a dog track. I was living in Florida at the time the dog track closed down, it was cited for animal cruelty and no one else wanted to play in the Orange Bowl as a venue. It was time for it to be taken down. I am just glad I got to see it at least once before then. It sent a shiver up my spine.
That is actually pretty neat! I've been on two tours to the Nebraska Cornhusker's Memorial Stadium. Being on the field with a small amount of people is pretty amazing.

I think the Silverdome was average or close to it. This guy used its ignominious ending to give it a low grade and that wasn’t right. Oh, and like half these stadiums are outside the “home” city.
The one positive aspect of the SB held at Stanford was the free parking, as there was no organized parking lot at the site. Instead, vehicles were parked in the Eucalyptus trees grove and surrounding athletic fields, with guys directing the traffic so the vehicles would line up in orderly rows.
Tulane Stadium was notorious as a dump even when it was hosting the Super Bowl. The day the Superdome opened in 1975, Tulane's upper decks were condemned. They used it for high school football for another five years before putting it out of its misery.
A case could be made for Orange and Rose being good at the time. Tulane was awful. I know they wanted to play in New Orleans but why not wait for the Superdome?
You should come to new orleans for a game. Any game really. Saints game, either bowl game, southern & grambling, hell even the state highschool championships. And you'd have an idea about why the nfl loves new orleans. The only reason your top tier stadiums have hosted superbowls is because their owners hozed their citizens with taxes to build them. Who the hell wants to go to minnesota in february? (Nothing against minnesota) The nfl loves it when people spend money on them so those stadiums get awarded. But other than the stadium itself a host city is more what the superbowl is about. The superdome is the most convenient of them all. High quality food, nightlife, and hotels in walking distance of each other. And a city that has been partying since before most of other cities existed is the reason why. The dome is about to get a $450 million dollar renovation to modernise the interior of the most iconic domed stadium in the nfl.
just saw this today but i agree with everything except new orleans, New orleans has everything within walking distance of the superdome. Hotels everywhere and the hospitality and food industry is god tier, plus its like visiting another country within united states. I dont know if youve ever been to Nola but try it out. Theres a lot of reason and history behind all the events held there.
I was only 13 or 14 when the Super Bowl was played at old Rice Stadium in Houston. If memory serves me correctly, it even snowed a little? And again, I believe it was blacked out within 200 miles of the stadium. Boy, how times have changed!
Recently the Super Bowl has been a bargaining chip for a new stadium in a number of cities. The NFL will put the game in places like Indianapolis or Minnesota if that’s what it takes to entice the tax money out of the local government; otherwise they’ll just go wherever they can have good parties. Expect lots of Super Bowls in Las Vegas in the coming decades.
Ahh yes, the host of Super Bowl 40 in 2016 (11:40) and Super Bowl 50 in 2012 (11:51) after being opened in 2014. Truly a time-bending spectical of a stadium. Thanks for the laugh
The NFL has an 'odd fetishism' with having its end of year festival in a City with street parties, 1am tourist bars, unique food and T-shirt weather in February? I guess NOLA must be better when you are getting hosted and have the corporate credit card.
The Rose Bowl historically held some of the biggest super Bowl turnouts in the first 20 or so games. In fact: Super Bowl 14 was the highest ever attendance in Super Bowl History *103,985*
Exactly! Tulane Stadium was great when it hosted back in the day before indoor football in domed warehouses took over. Superdome may be ancient, but it keeps up to date with renovations, the weather is just fine (HI, Green Bay), and yeah, there may be a few hotels in NOLA. See you on Bourbon Street in 2024!
From an outsiders buying tickets perspective, you don't get any better than the Superdome. That's why. Pure and simple. The stadium is located directly in the heart of the city, unlike many of the stadiums on this list, and in walking distance of more hotels, bars, nightclubs, and casinos than most of the others combined. New Orleans is a densely packed city, at least downtown, so its attractive to tourists because there is so much more to do while you're there. So the NFL makes more money selling tickets, and the City makes more money on tourism. Its a win win. For that exact same reason, the new Raider Stadium is going to be absolutely immense and host probably 2 or 3 superbowls in the next 10 years.
I would say that the Orange Bowl was "Good for the era" way back in the 70s. No one knew any better, as cookie cutter stadiums (for example) were considered "marvels'.
A Cowboys-Patriots Superbowl would be my DREAM. Love both of these teams although they are most hated. The Cowboys-Patriots game two weeks ago was the greatest game of all time sooooooooo.... Hell yeah, I'd love to see it on the world's largest stage
surprising that Jerry World in Dallas hasn't gotten another Super Bowl. I hate the Cowboys but no denying that place is a beast. I wonder if its because of that expansion fiasco where they tried to put it to 105,000 capacity and a bunch of fans lost out?
You know I’m from Jacksonville and want to be salty but I cant even we were not even close to prepared to hold a event of that magnitude especially back then like people’s hotels were cruise ships
I was born and raised in Jacksonville and my prom was held at TIAA (which everyone still calls Everbank and you can’t change that) my parents went to that super bowl and I still forget that we ever held a Super Bowl here.
Have you ever been to the Superdome? That stadium is one of the best ever to go to. That’s why the NFL loves the Superdome, and NOLA is one of the biggest tourist cities in the world so it’s a natural for the super bowl
2:15 " this year's Superbowl " video was posted October 2019 .. " this year " which means October 2019 - December 2019 .. Superbowl was hosted February 2020
I think Tulane Stadium should've been put in the "good for the era" tier. Same with the Orange Bowl. Would you consider doing an update video from the more recent super bowls?
Fun fact about the Rose Bowl: It is the only stadium so far to have hosted the Super Bowl and a FIFA World Cup Final (both Men and Women). This might change in 2026 if MetLife Stadium or AT&T Stadium hosts the FIFA World Cup Final.
I've been to 4 games at US Bank Stadium now and I can say that it is truly an amazing place. I went to the Metrodome quite a few times as a kid and that was good too but US Bank is just on another level. All hail the boat! Skol in the Super Bowl was played at the old Rice Stadium in Houston. If memory serves me correctly, it even snowed a little? And again, I believe it was blacked out within 200 miles of the stadium. Boy, how times have changed! IMO the Silverdome should've easily been in the "Good for the era" ranking, given that the SB was way back in 1982. Fun fact about the Rose Bowl: It is the only stadium so far to have hosted the Super Bowl and a FIFA World Cup Final (both Men and Women). This might change in 2026 if MetLife Stadium or AT&T Stadium hosts the FIFA World Cup Final. I would like to see Super Bowls played at one of the team's home stadiums. They can alternate every year between the AFC and the NFC. Sadly, it won't happen. To be fair, most of the stadiums for the early games, eg the Orange Bowl and Rose Bowl, were good for their era, even if they seem absurdly dated by the standards of today's billion-dollar palaces. You probably won't see this....but yeah seeing as I was like 9 at the time, the Jacksonville Super Bowl was awesome. Spent all day at the NFL experience festivities, and even got burned by my uncle in the 40. But looking back Jacksonville as a city isn't great to have a Super Bowl....the stadium with pools and large ass screens along with the riverfront development Shad Khan is building up. I can definitely see another Jacksonville Super Bowl because lord...Jacksonville is really spread out Stanford stadium isn’t the only case. Rams VS Steelers in ‘79 was at the Rose Bowl and the Rams were in LA The reason I'm proud most to be an Eagles fan is even if we lose we win because you already know that EDP broke the toilet Can we talk for a moment about how three teams have made up just over 50% of the AFC's super bowl appearances and none of those three teams have ever gotten to host one. Fun fact about Jacksonville. They had to bring in 3 cruise ships to provide the number of high-quality rooms the league wanted from a host city. 15:37 Remember the LA Rams played the Steelers in the Rose Bowl (in LA) in Super Bowl XIV, essentially also a home game for the Rams. I think Lucas Oil should be on the top level, due to the atmosphere and it is a monster stadium The Rams SB against the Steelers was basically a home game for them. Played in Pasadena. The Rams were pretty much playing at home too when they lost to the Steelers. Even when this video was published Stanford was not the only time the Super Bowl was "essentially a home game for one of the teams" Since the Rams played SB 14 at the Rose Bowl I understand they have nice weather, hotel capacity, and a ton of fun other things to do. But Miami and New Orleans host the Super Bowl way too often. Any other city would be told to build a new stadium. Yet Miami and Nawlins get a pass on the old stadiums with just modest upgrades. You never seem to disappoint with the 28-3 jokes lol 2:16 For those who didn't get it, the Superb Owl is actually just the Super Bowl with the space in a different place I firmly believe that the only reason it hasn’t been back to Dallas in a decade we had a massive winter storm come through that week and everything was a bit of a disaster A Cowboys-Patriots Superbowl would be my DREAM. Love both of these teams although they are most hated. The Cowboys-Patriots game two weeks ago was the greatest game of all time so... Hell yeah, I'd love to see it on the world's largest stage You should do videos about how each team got their names/logos. Harder to believe that Stanford Stadium, the Rose Bowl, and Pontiac Silverdome were FIFA World Cup '94 stadiums too. If you have been to New Orleans, you would understand. That city is amazing, truly special The Silverdome was definitely good for the time Coming back to this post-Super Bowl 55 That was literally just a home game for the Buccaneers with Raymond James Stadium The 96 Super Bowl in Phoenix was supposed to be there in 1993 as agreed upon in 1991 but the state of Arizona didn't recognize MLK day in 1992 so the NFL took it away. After state voters made MLK day a holiday the NFL decided to give AZ the 1996 Super Bowl. Why have New Orleans & Miami hosted so many Super Bowls? It's not rocket science. Miami has great weather and is a good tourist town. New Orleans is a major party city. I'll bet the NFL brass that goes to New Orleans for Super Bowl parties as much as the fans that go. For the most part, these stadiums are just ranked based on how recently they were opened, with the assumption that newer stadiums are better. But from a certain point of view, older stadiums were better as the lack of luxury boxes and whatnot put the rest of the seats much closer to the action. I can see the UK hosting a Super Bowl shortly. Whether they go to Wembley, Twickenham, or the Millennium Stadium there will probably be one. I would say that the Orange Bowl was "Good for the era" way back in the 70s. No one knew any better, as cookie-cutter stadiums (for example) were considered "marvels'. The Superdome getting another renovation. A 400 million dollar renovation. Ahh yes, the host of Super Bowl 40 in 2016 (11:40) and Super Bowl 50 in 2012 (11:51) after being opened in 2014. Truly a time-bending spectacle of a stadium. Thanks for the laugh
SoFi Stadium (Los Angeles Rams and Los Angeles Chargers) in Inglewood, California (Los Angeles area) is going to be definitely in the top tier of stadiums hosting the Super Bowl which it is going to in 2021. Allegiant Stadium (Las Vegas Raiders) in Las Vegas, Nevada is also going to fall under this category.
As soon as that ball was snapped incorrectly we knew how that game was going to be and I'm not even a Broncos in fact I have always had a certain dislike for the team but that was only when they had Manning

14:44 Rice Stadium is indeed not a good sports venue these days... but it may have been better in the early 1970s, I dunno... I wasn't born till the late 70s. However, I can't support the "probably the most forgettable place the Super Bowl has ever been played" description, as Rice Stadium was also the site of JFK's famous speech about NASA and the moon mission* in the early 60s. Even if it has nothing to do with sports, that alone makes the stadium notable, historic, and certainly not forgettable.

That’s why we built the indoor stadium lol
Coming back to this post Super bowl 55 That was literally just a home game for the buccaneers with Raymond James stadium
If you have been to New Orleans, you would understand. That city is amazing, truly special
just saw this today but i agree with everything except new orleans, New orleans has everything within walking distance of the superdome. Hotels everywhere and the hospitality and food industry is god tier, plus its like visiting another country within united states. I dont know if youve ever been to Nola but try it out. Theres a lot of reason and history behind all the events held there.
For a second, I thought the ad at the beginning would take a left turn when you started listing the stuff you couldn't hide lol.
I was only 13 or 14 when the Super Bowl was played at old Rice Stadium in Houston. If memory serves me correctly, it even snowed a little? And again, I believe it was blacked out within 200 miles of the stadium. Boy, how times have changed!
I'm just here for the Manscaped ads
There was no Manscaped ad
@@BreaReal *WHEEEEZE*
EDP totally blew up that bathroom 🚻 love how you gave him that shoutout! Lol
1:50 is where the video actually starts to save you all the time.
At the time, Rice Stadium had a capacity of ~70,000. The Astrodome only 50,000. An easy choice there.
Not a bad stadium for that time either.
Recently the Super Bowl has been a bargaining chip for a new stadium in a number of cities. The NFL will put the game in places like Indianapolis or Minnesota if that’s what it takes to entice the tax money out of the local government; otherwise they’ll just go wherever they can have good parties. Expect lots of Super Bowls in Las Vegas in the coming decades.
Gonna bet in a 10 year span, Vegas will host six of them. Might as well book as a permanent location cos' no one is gonna compete with it.
MarloSoBalJr Gaming LA will compete too
Ahh yes, the host of Super Bowl 40 in 2016 (11:40) and Super Bowl 50 in 2012 (11:51) after being opened in 2014. Truly a time-bending spectical of a stadium. Thanks for the laugh
The reason im proud most to be a eagles fan is even if we lose we win because you already know that edp broke they toliet
"Hello Muddah, hello Faddah, here I am at Camp Granada..."
last time i was this early fivepoints had hair
"The circular ring inside the roof's dilated sphincter..." LOVE IT. I work there so I'll have to tell my team members next time I see them.
As a Detroit fan I’m glad we’re in the conversation about cities that host Super Bowls. Makes up for the 0 Super Bowl appearances 🤠
Soon, all Super Bowls will be held in Las Vegas.
a Grain of SALT that’s going to be super annoying, even though it makes perfect sense (vegas hotels aren’t nearly as active in the winter)
No it won’t. NFL will want to switch up super bowl every year
....and that's when i'll stop watching it!
Your voice is so convincing to me I actually thought you looked younger and I thought you were in college or high school I really like your voice
The NFL has an 'odd fetishism' with having its end of year festival in a City with street parties, 1am tourist bars, unique food and T-shirt weather in February? I guess NOLA must be better when you are getting hosted and have the corporate credit card.
Your classic background music is amazing. I love it
So many Wrestlemania stadiums
The Rose Bowl historically held some of the biggest super Bowl turnouts in the first 20 or so games. In fact: Super Bowl 14 was the highest ever attendance in Super Bowl History *103,985*
Seems like the Tulane stadium should have been in the good for the era category
Sleep WeaselR55 He has no clue
Exactly! Tulane Stadium was great when it hosted back in the day before indoor football in domed warehouses took over. Superdome may be ancient, but it keeps up to date with renovations, the weather is just fine (HI, Green Bay), and yeah, there may be a few hotels in NOLA. See you on Bourbon Street in 2024!
Do we need to talk about your stadium fetish?
From an outsiders buying tickets perspective, you don't get any better than the Superdome. That's why. Pure and simple. The stadium is located directly in the heart of the city, unlike many of the stadiums on this list, and in walking distance of more hotels, bars, nightclubs, and casinos than most of the others combined. New Orleans is a densely packed city, at least downtown, so its attractive to tourists because there is so much more to do while you're there. So the NFL makes more money selling tickets, and the City makes more money on tourism. Its a win win. For that exact same reason, the new Raider Stadium is going to be absolutely immense and host probably 2 or 3 superbowls in the next 10 years.
Hmmm. You don’t like the Dolphins, eh? Anyway that stadium will always be Joe Robbie to me. I also think the Superdome is kind of cool.
I would say that the Orange Bowl was "Good for the era" way back in the 70s. No one knew any better, as cookie cutter stadiums (for example) were considered "marvels'.
“stanford stadium is the only stadium that hosted the home town team”
tom brady: “holy my beer”
Commenting this on every new five points upload until he does worst high school football stadiums comment #7
Wildfire micro there are a lot of high school stadiums 🏟
A Cowboys-Patriots Superbowl would be my DREAM. Love both of these teams although they are most hated. The Cowboys-Patriots game two weeks ago was the greatest game of all time sooooooooo....
Hell yeah, I'd love to see it on the world's largest stage
Stanford stadium isn’t the only case. Rams VS Steelers in ‘79 was at the rose bowl and the rams were in LA
Silverdome wasn't that bad of a stadium.
I'm glad to see NRG Stadium make it to top level lol I do love the stadium for Texans games and the rodeo
surprising that Jerry World in Dallas hasn't gotten another Super Bowl. I hate the Cowboys but no denying that place is a beast. I wonder if its because of that expansion fiasco where they tried to put it to 105,000 capacity and a bunch of fans lost out?
the Georgia Dome wasn't demolished because of "structural problems" it was replaced
Okay so why was it replaced
@@matthartleyjr9180 Did the structural problems begin when that tornado hit it DURING an SEC tournament game?
The Rams were pretty much playing at home too when they lost to the Steelers.
MetLife should be higher it's a great high capacity stadium
The joke about the Houston stadium withstanding the Falcons implosion was worth the price of admission.
I love that so much easily my number 1 even though I liked Super Bowl 42 and I'm a Patriots fan
You know I’m from Jacksonville and want to be salty but I cant even we were not even close to prepared to hold a event of that magnitude especially back then like people’s hotels were cruise ships
People were staying in Gainesville and Daytona too
I'm from Jax, and I agree.
You never seem to disappoint with the 28-3 jokes lol
No manscaped adds??
Fun fact about Jacksonville. They had to bring in 3 cruise ships provide the number of high quality rooms the league wants from a host city.
Mercedes Benz SuperDome deserves better🥺🥺
I was born and raised in Jacksonville and my prom was held at TIAA (which everyone still calls Everbank and you can’t change that) my parents went to that super bowl and I still forget that we ever held a Super Bowl here.
Have you ever been to the Superdome? That stadium is one of the best ever to go to. That’s why the NFL loves the Superdome, and NOLA is one of the biggest tourist cities in the world so it’s a natural for the super bowl
11:41 XL (2016) lol
2:15 " this year's Superbowl " video was posted October 2019 .. " this year " which means October 2019 - December 2019 .. Superbowl was hosted February 2020
I think Tulane Stadium should've been put in the "good for the era" tier. Same with the Orange Bowl.
Would you consider doing an update video from the more recent super bowls?
Fun fact about the Rose Bowl: It is the only stadium so far to have hosted the Super Bowl and a FIFA World Cup Final (both Men and Women). This might change in 2026 if MetLife Stadium or AT&T Stadium hosts the FIFA World Cup Final.
11:45 XL means 40 btw
He meant 50. (L)
We host super bowls because the stadium is downtown walking distance and the city specializes in hosting events, warm weather, and indoor stadium.
TH-cam: FivePointsVids has uploaded a stadium related video
*My Finger: Hovers toward it*
I've been to 4 games at US Bank Stadium now and I can say that it is truly an amazing place. I went to the Metrodome quite a few times as a kid and that was good too but US Bank is just on another level. All hail the boat! Skol in the Super Bowl was played at the old Rice Stadium in Houston. If memory serves me correctly, it even snowed a little? And again, I believe it was blacked out within 200 miles of the stadium. Boy, how times have changed! IMO the Silverdome should've easily been in the "Good for the era" ranking, given that the SB was way back in 1982. Fun fact about the Rose Bowl: It is the only stadium so far to have hosted the Super Bowl and a FIFA World Cup Final (both Men and Women). This might change in 2026 if MetLife Stadium or AT&T Stadium hosts the FIFA World Cup Final. I would like to see Super Bowls played at one of the team's home stadiums. They can alternate every year between the AFC and the NFC. Sadly, it won't happen. To be fair, most of the stadiums for the early games, eg the Orange Bowl and Rose Bowl, were good for their era, even if they seem absurdly dated by the standards of today's billion-dollar palaces. You probably won't see this....but yeah seeing as I was like 9 at the time, the Jacksonville Super Bowl was awesome. Spent all day at the NFL experience festivities, and even got burned by my uncle in the 40. But looking back Jacksonville as a city isn't great to have a Super Bowl....the stadium with pools and large ass screens along with the riverfront development Shad Khan is building up. I can definitely see another Jacksonville Super Bowl because lord...Jacksonville is really spread out Stanford stadium isn’t the only case. Rams VS Steelers in ‘79 was at the Rose Bowl and the Rams were in LA The reason I'm proud most to be an Eagles fan is even if we lose we win because you already know that EDP broke the toilet Can we talk for a moment about how three teams have made up just over 50% of the AFC's super bowl appearances and none of those three teams have ever gotten to host one. Fun fact about Jacksonville. They had to bring in 3 cruise ships to provide the number of high-quality rooms the league wanted from a host city. 15:37 Remember the LA Rams played the Steelers in the Rose Bowl (in LA) in Super Bowl XIV, essentially also a home game for the Rams. I think Lucas Oil should be on the top level, due to the atmosphere and it is a monster stadium The Rams SB against the Steelers was basically a home game for them. Played in Pasadena. The Rams were pretty much playing at home too when they lost to the Steelers. Even when this video was published Stanford was not the only time the Super Bowl was "essentially a home game for one of the teams" Since the Rams played SB 14 at the Rose Bowl I understand they have nice weather, hotel capacity, and a ton of fun other things to do. But Miami and New Orleans host the Super Bowl way too often. Any other city would be told to build a new stadium. Yet Miami and Nawlins get a pass on the old stadiums with just modest upgrades.
You never seem to disappoint with the 28-3 jokes lol 2:16 For those who didn't get it, the Superb Owl is actually just the Super Bowl with the space in a different place I firmly believe that the only reason it hasn’t been back to Dallas in a decade we had a massive winter storm come through that week and everything was a bit of a disaster A Cowboys-Patriots Superbowl would be my DREAM. Love both of these teams although they are most hated. The Cowboys-Patriots game two weeks ago was the greatest game of all time so... Hell yeah, I'd love to see it on the world's largest stage You should do videos about how each team got their names/logos. Harder to believe that Stanford Stadium, the Rose Bowl, and Pontiac Silverdome were FIFA World Cup '94 stadiums too. If you have been to New Orleans, you would understand. That city is amazing, truly special The Silverdome was definitely good for the time Coming back to this post-Super Bowl 55 That was literally just a home game for the Buccaneers with Raymond James Stadium The 96 Super Bowl in Phoenix was supposed to be there in 1993 as agreed upon in 1991 but the state of Arizona didn't recognize MLK day in 1992 so the NFL took it away. After state voters made MLK day a holiday the NFL decided to give AZ the 1996 Super Bowl. Why have New Orleans & Miami hosted so many Super Bowls? It's not rocket science. Miami has great weather and is a good tourist town. New Orleans is a major party city. I'll bet the NFL brass that goes to New Orleans for Super Bowl parties as much as the fans that go. For the most part, these stadiums are just ranked based on how recently they were opened, with the assumption that newer stadiums are better. But from a certain point of view, older stadiums were better as the lack of luxury boxes and whatnot put the rest of the seats much closer to the action. I can see the UK hosting a Super Bowl shortly. Whether they go to Wembley, Twickenham, or the Millennium Stadium there will probably be one. I would say that the Orange Bowl was "Good for the era" way back in the 70s. No one knew any better, as cookie-cutter stadiums (for example) were considered "marvels'. The Superdome getting another renovation. A 400 million dollar renovation. Ahh yes, the host of Super Bowl 40 in 2016 (11:40) and Super Bowl 50 in 2012 (11:51) after being opened in 2014. Truly a time-bending spectacle of a stadium. Thanks for the laugh
I'm on my way to US Bank Stadium right now to watch the game actually!
Cool! Hope Kirk doesn't choke again in Primetime!!! :D
SoFi Stadium (Los Angeles Rams and Los Angeles Chargers) in Inglewood, California (Los Angeles area) is going to be definitely in the top tier of stadiums hosting the Super Bowl which it is going to in 2021. Allegiant Stadium (Las Vegas Raiders) in Las Vegas, Nevada is also going to fall under this category.
13:02 What are you talking about sir, that game went just fine! #GoHawks
Unless you’re a Broncos, 49ers, Rams, or Cardinals fan
As soon as that ball was snapped incorrectly we knew how that game was going to be and I'm not even a Broncos in fact I have always had a certain dislike for the team but that was only when they had Manning
FPV in 2019: "The only case where the Super Bowl was essential a home game for one of the participants...."
Us in 2022: "well make that 1 of 2 cases."
Lucas Oil should host more super bowls
Yes, because when I think drunken week long party I think of Indianapolis (NOT).
The old Stanford stadium hosted a super bowl….. wow how the NFL has changed
Cowboys vs Patriots super bowl would be the most watched live sport of all time
Nobody cares about the Patriots without Brady
I've been to 4 games at US Bank Stadium now and I can say that it is truly an amazing place. I went to the Metrodome quite a few times as a kid and that was good too but US Bank is just on another level. All hail the boat! Skol
@10:17 - Now, that's the Super Bowl we all remember. ;) Falcons *"milked"* their way to infamy.
So any stadium with a cover is top tier
And a big TV in the middle
"After Super Bowl 8" ....Miami Orange Orange Bowl last hosted Super Bowl 13. And you spelled Joe Robbie incorrectly.
Also Super Bowl 8 wasn't in Miami.
I think Lucas Oil should be in top level, due to the atmosphere and it being a monster stadium
They used to put the Super Bowl in New Orleans because the nfl was sure that the saints would never go to the super bowl
Do this but with the MLB
This could work for the all star game, but not for the World Series
That’s what I meant the all star

Thank you for giving my ASU stadium a Substandard rating - we both know it probably should be worse. Anyone who has ever tried to sit through a game in that Stadium in the Arizona Sun...it was not easy. Great Video!
That is why arizona state plays night games in sept. and oct. I attended a sdsu-arizona state game there in sept. 2017. it was only in the mid 90s that day for the night game.
14:44 Rice Stadium is indeed not a good sports venue these days... but it may have been better in the early 1970s, I dunno... I wasn't born till the late 70s. However, I can't support the "probably the most forgettable place the Super Bowl has ever been played" description, as Rice Stadium was also the site of JFK's famous speech about NASA and the moon mission* in the early 60s. Even if it has nothing to do with sports, that alone makes the stadium notable, historic, and certainly not forgettable.
