Dallas, Indianapolis, Phoenix Vying for 2011 Super Bowl
Dallas, Indianapolis and Phoenix submitted bids to host the 2011 Super Bowl.
The Cowboys and Colts have new stadiums in the works. The Cardinals' new stadium near Phoenix is hosting next year's Super Bowl.
The site for the 2011 game is expected to be selected at an owners' meeting in May in Nashville.

We`re all lining up now to get our tickets to the 2011 Super Bowl in Green Bay in February where the average high temp is minus two and the average low is minus eleven. At game time, say 8:15 CST, it should be about minus six or seven in the stands.

I agree with Wind Point. One of the most famous NFL Championship games ever, the Ice Bowl between Dallas and Green Bay was played "on the frozen tundra" of Lambeau Field.
I game in the snow would be awesome.

a green bay super bowl would be great...for the fans sitting in their la-z-boys at home. not for the butts in the lambeau seats or the players. add that to the fact that they pick a destination with things to do other than the super bowl for the days leading up to the big game.

A Super Bowl in Dallas, Phoenix or (indoors in) Indy? BORING! If the NFL had any imagination, they'd consider playing the Super Bowl somewhere where weather could be a factor. Somewhere like NY/NJ, Cleveland, Chicago, or Green Bay. Everyone knows that weather is a huge and important part of NFL lore. By removing the weather from the equation for the SB, the NFL is denying some of the most dramatic moments in its history. Good for the corporate tents; bad for the sport.
