What happens if the location of the Super Bowl is like a team playing?
NFL Super Bowl Picks place there about 3 years since the bowl, Super too bad if the home team & # xeb, was he? A situation will change and if so, how will they choose instead to medium term?

It actually did happen when the SF 49ers faced off against the Miami Dolphins in 1990 for the 1989 Super Bowl. It was supposed to take place in Candlestick Park, home of the 49ers, but that stadium was under repair due to the 1989 SF earthquake disaster. Instead, Stanford Stadium, about 25 miles from SF, but still considered within “49er” territory was the venue.
If it happens, it happens! Home field advantage may or may not be in play because maybe 1/3 of the home team’s season ticket holding fans will be able to purchase tickets and the rest will be media, opposing fans, fans from out of town, VIP’s and corporate factions.

They would not change the location, but it has never happened and I doubt it every will. The NFL always tries to choose the stadium of a team that did not do good the previous season.

They wouldn’t change the location…
You’d learn that the team who would get homefield advantage in the Super Bowl, gets it two weeks prior to the date of the actual game. By that time, tickets are already sold out, and they set up for the game in that stadium a good period of time before the actual game kicks off.
If the team who reaches the Super Bowl has homefield, then you’d better believe they earned it. In the end, “they have home field advantage” is not a valid excuse. Great teams rise above it.

They would not change the location. As yet, this has not happened, although the Niners played one Super Bowl in nearby Palo Alto. But there is nothing short of a natural disaster or a nuclear missile strike that could get the NFL to change the location of the Super Bowl.

No. That team would just have home field advantage. That would be pretty short notice to just move a major event of that caliber to some other unprepared city.

They would have to play there anyway, but so far it has never happened.
