Nashville was just awarded its first Super Bowl this week, but business and civic leaders are already talking about hosting the big game on a regular basis.
Why it matters: Local boosters want Nashville in the regular rotation of Super Bowl hosts along with cities like Los Angeles and New Orleans.
Nashville earned high marks for the week-long party it threw downtown, mixing football with the local music industry.
"Looking ahead to 2030, there is no doubt that Nashville is going to reinvent the game for the Super Bowl and redefine what a great Super Bowl means," Nihill said at yesterday's celebration press conference. "We are going to have hundreds of millions of people across hundreds of countries get a glimpse of what makes this city and state remarkable."
Jim Nantz, the legendary sportscaster who now lives in Nashville and is co-chair of the host committee, said he believes the city will host "multiple" Super Bowls.
