Future Championship Location?
WARNING:
The following is only true in the imagination of a huge FIRST/Vikings fan, but here me out!!!
1. Minnesota Legislature passes a stadium bill for the Vikings (2012)
2. This bumps Saint Louis into the hot seat for a one-way ticket to LA (2013)
3. The Rams move out, making Edward Jones Dome financially unsustainable (2014)
4. The stadium is destroyed, leaving FIRST without a venue for its following season (Spring 2015)
5. FIRST Leaders want to keep the Championship in the midwest, and start looking for a new venue. (Fall 2015)
6. The new Vikings Stadium opens (2016)
7. FIRST Execs reward the growing state with 4 regionals (including next-season's "Double DECCer" in Duluth) with a Championship event in the new Stadium
8. Some odd-shaped game piece gets lodged in the stadium's retractable roof, throwing off Tom Brady in the last play of Superbowl LI, giving the MN Vikings their first Superbowl!
Ok....so #8 is probably never gonna happen, but with the Ram's Stadium getting old, do you think its possible FIRST could go north? -if not, where else?thoughts?
