Expect Super Bowl 58 — Super Bowl LVIII If You Love Roman Numerals — To Come To Las Vegas In 2024

By Alan Snel of LVSportsBiz.com

I know Las Vegas.

It hurts.

It’s a serious bummer to see “Super Bowl LV” out there on all the signs and promos, but not have the Super Bowl in Las Vegas.

Super Bowl LV is in Tampa, Florida. For your Roman numeral buffs, LV is not Las Vegas but 55. The National Football League likes to use the Roman numeral language in its Super Bowl titles.

But Las Vegas, do not fret.

It’s pretty good odds that Super Bowl LVIII — or Super Bowl 58 — will be staged at the Las Vegas Raiders’ new stadium, Allegiant Stadium, in 2024. Just a mere three years away.

 

 

The Super Bowl will be in Los Angeles in 2002, in Glendale/metro Phoenix in 2023 and New Orleans in 2025.

I’m betting the NFL will award Super Bowl 58 in Las Vegas for 2024. Just a very strong hunch.


 

Speaking of the Raiders’ new venue, which hosted zero fans in its inaugural season because of the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s ready to roll as a vaccination center if called on for duty.

In a letter sent Friday to President Joe Biden, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said many of the stadiums should be able to get vaccination efforts moving quickly because of previous offers to use stadiums as virus testing centers and election sites.

The seven clubs already using their stadiums as vaccine sites are the Arizona Cardinals, Atlanta Falcons, Baltimore Ravens, Carolina Panthers, Houston Texans, Miami Dolphins and New England Patriots.

Perhaps this $2 billion stadium project, which included $750 million in public dollars, will come off the bench as a place to help beat this novel coronavirus
