Sun, 5 Mar 2006 21:23:11 -0800
Pacific Business News reports Aloha Stadium's top management wants to upgrade the sports complex so the state can make a credible bid to host the Super Bowl in 2016. Stadium management is convinced that the planned $129 million stadium makeover could help lure the National Football League's 50th Super Bowl to Hawaii. They said that would give the state about 10 years to plan and build 32 luxury suites and add 10,000 more seats to satisfy NFL requirements for hosting a Super Bowl at the 50,000-seat stadium. Brian McCarthy, an NFL spokesman, acknowledged that Aloha Stadium management has informally pitched the idea to the league. McCarthy said he wouldn't rule out the possibility of a Super Bowl in Hawaii, but described it as a long shot.
