When JKC got the approvals to build what is now Fed Ex Field, he signed a longterm lease to play in PG County. I was told a couple of years ago that the lease is very restrictive and punitive if the Skins try to play elsewhere.
That means Danny Boy - as the owner of the stadium - would have to find a way to put a roof on it or build a totally new one
in PG County for the owners to
consider putting a Super Bowl here in DC.
And just because a team hosts the game does not mean its fans get tix. In Miami last year, the host Dolphins got less than 3,000 tix to distribute. After they gave a bunch to their local sponsors and "corporate partners", the season ticket holders were in a lottery to share about 1100 tix.
One idea the league ought to consider is to play the game every year in the Rose Bowl. The reason is not the huge size of the stadium; the reason is that it is a neutral site and playing there assures that no team will ever have a "home game" in a Super Bowl. Of course, they could also achieve that end by playing in Detroit every year...
