I know this thread is for mentioning serious suggestions (whether FIRST sees them or not) but I'd like to throw Cleveland in.
Only issue we would have is weather. It's
very unpredictable. Otherwise, it's no less an option than some of the others posted here, sans Disney. You can't beat Disney.
We just had a $200-million
renovation of a major street (Euclid Avenue), including downtown Cleveland itself. We've got the Cleveland Convention Center, with
multiple hotels in the immediate area, some within walking distance, others on the
public transportation route.
It's near the lake, has a
large indoor shopping center (in walking distance), Gund Arena (
I refuse to change!), Jacob's Field (
Never!), the Brown's Stadium (nobody wants to touch it, lol), AND, The Great Lakes Science Center.
Actually, after typing this up, it doesn't seem like that bad of an idea...
