I am personally rooting for Indianapolis
I'm interested in how Detroit would be able to accommodate the vast amount of FIRST with it's lack of hotels in the downtown area. But if they are in the running, then clearly something is good enough for it to work. And remember, we did host super bowl XL, so it's possible. Anaheim would be interesting as long as it is not at disneyland. Atlanta was great from my experience, so i would love to see it return there or Detroit.
