Where is gonna be located the 2014-2015 Championship?

[MooreteP]

My personal choices:

1) Atlanta: Familiarity, easy to get a direct flight, great public transportation, The Finale event is outside and right next to the venue (Centennial Park), many hotels within walking distance and less expensive ones located on the train lines (MARTA), Atlanta Braves Game, Aquarium, High Museum.

The only question is the fate of the Georgia Dome with their plans for a new retractable roof stadium for the Falcons (IMHO, a big mistake).

2) Indianapolis: I'm a Hoosier (Purdue 1984). A great sports capital, Many hotels attached to the venue, geographically more central. The relative density of teams are within a one-day drive is very high.

The downsides are the connecting flights and the public transportation option.

3) Minneapolis: Lived there for three years in the late 80's. Good public transportation from the airport. Similar to St. Louis for hotel accommodations. The skywalk system is awesome. Much to do. Great arts. The Twin City Twins at Target Field (although they bias away from the early spring games).
FIRST in Minnesota has shown tremendous growth.

The negatives would be connecting flights and the weather.

WILDCARDS:

Detroit: FiM and oh so very close to Canada.

San Diego, LA, Orlando: Why not return to the days of EPCOT and hold it outside. Spend the money you'll save on the dome by paying for awesome canopies over the field in the event it rains.
Six Divisions with 72 teams. (another thread)
Far from the East coast for LA and SD, and from the West for Orlando.
Maybe its time to shift the center of gravity West for a few years. People on the East Coast tend to not be aware of the time zones as people on the West Coast).

Denver: Cool city, but the transport lacks.

Dallas, San Antonio: Good airfares to Dallas, poor logistics. 2018 maybe. Good Center of Gravity.

Toronto: Perfect. Their cities are as well designed as their Robots.
Passports.
