Not anytime soon.  Perhaps after a few years of positive urban, entertainment, hotel and mass transit improvements.  If I had to toss a year out there, it would be somewhere between 2025 and 2030.

JACKSONVILLE 2013
That will give us enough time for transportation and city improvements! Let's do it!

From what I understand, the overall sentiment was that Jax did a pretty good job with hosting the game.  Having the cruise ships downtown was something never done and the general atmosphere was very upbeat and pleasant.  I have a more optimistic prediction of 2014 or 2015.

There has been quite a bit of hotel capacity added downtown and across the metro, as well as some small steps in the entertainment sector.  The news of an award could help to push the city forward on helping developers such as Sleiman to enhance the entertainment sector allowing us to put on a much better show this go round.

When the NFL is ready to pressure us make improvements to the stadium again.  I do not say this as a negative.

Jacksonville Super Bowl was one of the best times Ive ever had in this City and Ive been here for about 30 years.

My wife and I headed down for the friday and saturday night festivities and had a blast too.  I didn't hear one complaint from anyone other than the Landing being so jam packed they couldn't move.

Many, many years. The new mega-stadiums in Dallas, Arizona and New York will be in the rotation. Throw in a regular trip to Miami and New Orleans and we are shut out. I'd be surprised if it ever came back.

The cardiac Jags are certainly doing their part, damn, if they trump the steelers we are quickly becoming one of the darling teams of the NFL. I say that because on the streets in CCCCC XXXXXX and OOOOO all over the land you hear talk about JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS, I saw jerseys on the DALLAS and MEMPHIS streetcars! We are not yet the Packers or Cowboys, but I think for a baby team in a tiny TV market, we are winning friends across the land. This is going to effect the decision to come back to "the big city" with the SKYWAY er
STREETCAR (sorry) SUPER BOWL.

So 17 to 22 years from now. Wow that is a long time. Im thinking Nashville & Charlotte will won't some of that action also. 17 to 22 years.

Can you explain in more detail? Isn't Jacksonville one of the best stadiums in the league? Does Miami & New Orleans make those improvements as well? Just some dumb questions, Im curious how that works. Write back.

IMO Put a roof and transit into the stadium and we might damn well become a HOME for the Superbowl.

Our stadium is current as of 2005 for the Super Bowl. I can't tell you that I know all that much about the NFL's stadium requirements, but generally when franchises fight cities over money for new stadiums, the organizations want the new stadiums to be built to maximize profits in the ever-changing marketplace. It's not generally because of any action by the league itself.

What I took Jeffrey's comment to be referencing was the fact that when a team builds (or makes costly renovations to) a new stadium, they are often rewarded with the Super Bowl by the rest of the owners.

I don't know, guys. I worked at a Downtown bar â€" granted, one that wasn't exactly in walking distance from the Stadium â€" and people from Philly were walking in dumbfounded, like, "What the f*** is there to do around here?" I was a little bit embarrassed. On Super Bowl Sunday the westside of downtown was a ghost town. I swear. I saw tumbleweeds.
I think we have a lot of improvements to make and a lot more downtown development to do (The Landing is a joke at this point) before we can think about hosting another Super Bowl. I hope we work toward that though and I hope it benefits the people who will continue to develop the urban core.

don't forget LA's new stadium.
they don't have a team yet, but they will get one again.
