RCA Dome is being torn down right now and will be replaced by more convention space that will be connected to LOS. Lucas Oil Stadium is much bigger than The Georgia Dome and could almost host the whole thing without the connected convention center.

There are lots of downtown hotels (with more being constructed) within easy walking distance, much closer than in ATL.

After party could be in Military park, big Friday social could be at the Indy Zoo.

Brand new airport terminal served by all major airlines, even some that Atlanta doesn't get (for Southwest lovers like me.) That means constantly cheep flights. In fact many people drive from Cincy to Indy to get the cheaper fairs.

The only thing that Indy is lacking is public transportation from the airport to downtown but that could be overcome.
