If you’re familiar with Super Bowl host city history, you know very well the league doesn’t usually like to veer away from America’s warmest cities. Places like Miami and New Orleans have hosted the biggest U.S. sporting event at least 10 separate times, and they will host them many times in the future.
That is a guarantee. (New Orleans is the site of the 2025 Super Bowl!)
But if this is supposed to be a wholesale celebration of football — a veritable cornucopia of everything about this silly game that engulfs American culture these days — it’s high time the Super Bowl be hosted regularly outside of areas where it’s always 70 degrees in February. Super Bowls in Minneapolis, Detroit, Pontiac (Michigan) and Indianapolis (where they were all in a dome) and New York (New Jersey) remain the only cold-weather cities ever to host the big game. What a shame.

That, for lack of a better word, is absurd.
Here’s a list of new Super Bowl host cities we’d love to see in the future if the NFL ever decides to try something refreshing.
