DALLAS (WBAP/KLIF News) – The National Football League has announced which cities will host the next five Super Bowls, and North Texas has been left off the list.
Houston hosts the big game next year.
Minneapolis, Atlanta, Miami and Los Angeles will host through 2021.
The Dallas Cowboys didn’t make the cut. They hosted in 2011, but bad weather and a problem with some temporary seats grabbed headlines.
Owner Jerry Jones congratulated the other cities. “Atlanta has been so supportive of not just the Falcons, but the NFL,” Jones told ESPN. “They are deserving of having this Super Bowl. Obviously it’s a great stadium; a state-of-the-art stadium. But it’s the entire aggregation with what’s happened with the College Hall of Fame, and that whole picture down there is just something that not only Atlanta is proud of, but I’m proud of.”
Jones also commended Miami and Los Angeles. “They’ve basically rebuilt the stadium, and it’s perfect for South Florida. And L.A., I’m so proud that this country is going to get to see what we ultimately do there, with the entertainment capital of the world.”
