Now that Vegas has a team, stadium, don't expect too many Superbowls in New Orleans with Latoya Da Dastroya and her party running the sh*tshow...

Unless Vegas builds a special high volume tram system directly from the strip to the Stadium there's no way they get more than their token Super Bowl. There is supposedly very little parking (2700 spaces) anywhere close to the stadium and people have to basically hike to get there. One of the driving factors for hosting is easy access to the stadium. While Vegas does have the required accommodation and restaurant requirements covered the access one is going to be difficult to cover. The location problem was an issue since before construction even began with many local critics.

New Orleans will remain in the mix having all of the requirements easily satisfied. It is also one of the corporate favorites which also comes into play.

Superbowl = Superdome
The Big Easy?
The Weather?
Maybe they just love our sparkling personalities.

Those all come into play. But, primarily, it is the required infrastructure. I read that New Orleans has always had the ideal infrastructure in place to host the Super Bowl, and other major events, and that is why it will continue to be a fixture hosting the NFL Championship. That why Miami will keep getting its turn, as well.

Jacksonville, for example has the weather and the stadium, but falls far short on the amenities. The one time they were allowed to host they had to use docked cruise ships to try to supplement the sparse hotel room availability. They'll not get another.
