No way we get it but would be awesome. I would go no matter who is playing.

It's become Super Bowl Jr. More to do with hotels than proximity to Hot Fanta.

I think the 2nd wave was all stuff that had to with redecorating inside - which is why they donated all that stuff from the suites to the habitat stores.

if that would build one 20+ story hotel and one more great big conference center (npe and houstex big) then we will get a superbowl
