possible world cup cities in america

why the hell are places like kansas city, baltimore, and nashville listed? i think it should be between dallas, houston, miami, l.a., or atlanta.

 

There will be 12 cities hosting games. It's basically a list of cities with somewhat new stadiums with large (60K+) capacities.

 

Did you read the article? Some of those are in there. Remember that the World Cup is an "entire nation" hosted event, not a one-city event like the Olympics. Why do you not want it to be in the cities you mentioned?

I really believe that after Brazil, it should be in a continent other than America. It should be in Europe or even Asia again. Even Australia should be considered. I believe that it should give the United States more time to be prepared with better venues in 2022 and make the number seem something like play-on words like 2x11 on the field is 22... How about that?

 

The last time we hosted ('94) we only had 9 cities. LA, Detroit, San Francisco, New Jersey (NYC), Orlando, Chicago, Dallas, Boston, and DC.

 

yes i read the article, thats how i knew cities like kansas city bmore and nashville were listed

and thank you DrLudicrous. i wanted to know why there were so many cities listed, and you answered my question.

 

^ :grin: How about answer my question, mister rolleyes? Why don't you want the other cities?

 

Reliant Stadium could easily provide the atmosphere desired for a World Cup game.

 

^ this

 

and how did chicago not make the list?

the stadium is out dated, i guess?

 

That was my first thought as well...very surprising. At the very least, Chicago would be a great city for visitors of the World Cup.

 

First no Olympics for Chicago.

Now we're not even included in the list of cities for the US bid.

Treated.
