Haha it will be soon enough though. Dude I love the location for it though. On the other side of the freeway, meaning they'll obviously renovate that area to suit the needs of tourists going in the area for the game and such.

Yeah. It's going to be a the location where two light rail lines come together (the Southeast and East End lines). There are some big redevelopment plans for that area, too.

Yeah I accidentally have ended up getting lost in that area while driving (curse those one way streets in downtown!) and I saw how run down that area is. It's nice seeing new developments there. B-E-A-Uti-FULL.

On a side note, Houston was one of just 2 US cities to be on the FIFA World Cup Trophy Tour, and was actually the last city on the tour and got to close the tour.

Here are the 18 cities listed in the US's bid, Atlanta, Baltimore, Boston, Dallas, Denver, Houston, Indianapolis, Kansas City, Los Angeles, Miami, Nashville, New York City, Philadelphia, Phoenix, San Diego, Seattle, Tampa and Washington D.C.

Haha no idea, my dad would love for that to happen. But the demand needs to go up for Cricket first. In general it's a very unpopular sport in USA.

Hopefully as the years go by, the demand increases.
