Chicago, we've got barns, corn fields, buildings that look like corn. We've got the Lake of Michigan, and we've got the tallest barnyard the Willis Barn Tower, in the country.

I think we would be a perfect location for it.

Baltimore was the only US city to sell out a football challenge.

What were they giving out free tickets in Happy Meal boxes?

I would argue NYC/Philly/Baltimore/DC

All within 3 hours, 4 brand new stadiums holding between 80-110K, 7 International Airports, Great rail linkage

I actually think you need 6 stadiums, so could throw in Boston and Pittsburgh, also new stadiums

Actually Man U is playing Union and has been sold out for months at the Linc - Earlier this fall there was another friendly sold out at the Linc

But there is a corn and barn shortage

If they came, they promised them free Hooters chicken wings and a free strip show.
