I'm among the coaches that would love a return to Walt Disney World. I am not convinced that Houston or Atlanta offers anything that Disney couldn't compete with. Really, in many ways, it was quite a bit more special.

I know Disney does offer some amazing deals, but if they offered a "good" discount back in 2002, when a one day, expiration, no park hopping ticket was $48, that's an increase of 66.42%. So even if Disney were to of given teams tickets at $24 (50% off), tickets would now be around $40, 83% of a full price ticket back in 2002.
Either way, if we're not basing having the Championship purely on Florida's tourism industry, I'd love to see it back. (Who wouldn't want a 30 minute drive to the Championship each day and still be able to sleep in your own bed?) But there have been plenty of threads on that matter.
