New Orleans logical spot for Pro Bowl - NFC South Blog - ESPN

Quote:

As the host city for next year’s Super Bowl, New Orleans reportedly is a candidate to host the Pro Bowl in 2013.

This situation remains very much up in the air, but there’s some pretty solid logic — and precedent — to putting the all-star game with the Super Bowl in New Orleans.

It’s been done before. Although the Pro Bowl was held in Honolulu on Sunday and also was there last year, it was held in Miami, the same city that hosted the Super Bowl prior to that. That also was the first time the NFL moved the game to the week before the Super Bowl, a trend that has continued and is expected to remain in place.
