If the NFL were smart — which the league often isn’t — they would move the Super Bowl out of Los Angeles to Miami, Tampa, Dallas or Houston — four cities you know aren’t shutting down crowds at events. Because the LA & California Super Bowl restrictions are going to be a mess.
It’s eminently predictable where blue states and blue cities will go as covid cases continue to rise during the winter. LA & California are going to keep layering on restrictions through January so they can claim they are “following the science.”
These covid restrictions are all going to be bullshit — and they’ll be totally ineffective — but they are highly likely to come, killing the Super Bowl crowd, festivities and experience in the process. The NFL should be proactive not reactive and move the game now.
If you felt comfortable about Arizona keeping everything normal you could flip the SB to Arizona this year and give Los Angeles next year’s game scheduled for Arizona. Also they should make me the next NFL commissioner because I’d be incredible at that job.
