According to their October 27,2022 Press Release, the stadium will have a "canopy" that will cover +/- 65% of the seats. The field will be open to the weather. I don't think a "weather dependent" Finals will be held there. Probably similar to Hard Rock that serves the Dolphins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was one scheduled for Richmond VA (1 hr) summer 2020, but that didn’t happen. Every year I check the schedule & no luck. I am beginning to feel like Linus waiting for the Great Pumpkin. Annapolis? I mean Richmond to Annapolis is typically 2 1/2 hours (ok 3 if traffic is more and ... perhaps more if you pick the really bad times to drive...grin) Even living south west of Richmond, VA seems you'd be able to make Annapolis within that window. That said, its a lot of driving for one night if you're not staying over somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The corps drive up from Winston-Salem to Allentown, and then right back to Nashville? Folks in Pittsburgh and Ohio lose their shows? Yeah, as someone from the West Coast this is by far my top concern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shortest route would be by jet ski, but that has its own issues. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njthundrrd Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 (edited) Okay, I'll play.... Jerry World in Dallas... or NRG in Houston! Dome, lots of parking, hotels everywhere, plenty of schools to host corps in a 60 mile radius, huge airport that is a hub, kids in band camp, and school does not start until about a week after.

This Texas transplant would love to see finals come to Dallas! Houston is also a very reasonable drive!
