But again i could be wrong. The Rose Bowl is way too shallow imo, and ingress/egress to seating was awful, as was access to the stadium location in general.

Good point. As of right now if California was to hold finals again, i think Stanford would be the best option, until the Lambs and the other team not to be named build the stadium in LA. Go Niners.

If CA was to hold finals it’s after the Indy deal expires. Otherwise it’s mute. Levi would be a bigger option in a scenario. They hosted NCAA football championships and hold the PAC 12 football championship game. Stanford is a nice stadium but too small for World. . Maybe Open class.

Or just generally be outside here. NO body wants to be outside here. And while we have the doomed stadium, there isn't any buildings connected to it and the sound inside for marching bands is just AWEFUL. The average high in Phoenix on Aug 8-10 is 104.6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Open class. Yes it's a mute point. As to Stanford being to small, it's around the same size as prior finals locations. Citrus bowl, Byrd stadium in College park Maryland, Indiana University. If need be, it could work. Keep in mind Stanford was big enough to host a Super Bowl. Yes Levi's is larger, but Levi's also has less seating by a large margin on what would be the concert side.

The new stadium is much smaller but very intimate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new Rams Stadium seems huge. Outdoors too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope they do, regardless of where it is in Cali. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
