Part 7/12:
The NFL is increasingly favoring indoor venues, driven by the desire to mitigate weather-related disruptions and maximize stadium utility year-round. Cities like Santa Clara, Los Angeles, and Atlanta are already set to host upcoming Super Bowls at new or renovated indoor venues, such as Sofi Stadium and Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
This trend raises questions about the future of outdoor football experiences. Traditionally, outdoor stadiums have been part of the sport's charm—imagine the iconic snow game at Lambeau Field or Kansas City's cold-weather edge. Moving indoor might mean sacrificing some of these outdoor elements but offers better control over game conditions and revenues.
