Wrong. Also, isn’t it embarrassing that the B12 plays there CG in a far superior and more iconic venue that is also quite a bit larger?

It is NOT superior -- in fact, DFW's venue is far more outdated and far less technologically advanced than ATL's MB.

Not to mention, DFW's is far more removed from nearby attractions and, most importantly, hotel rooms and access from the airport.

ATL's MB has DIRECT access to Atlanta's Hartsfield Int'l Airport (world's busiest) via high-speed rail service. Passengers can exit their plane, take the train to the terminal, take the train to downtown ATL to their hotels and/or the MB stadium without ever going outside. DFW has NOTHING -- absolutely NOTHING that can compare.

Then, there are all the thousdands of hotel rooms within WALKING distance of the stadium, not to mention the attractions within WALKING distance of the hotels and stadium -- The Georgia Aquarium (world's largest), The World of Coca-Cola Museum, Olympic Park, Georgia World Congress Center, CNN Center, numerous restaurants PLUS train service to the Beverly Hills of The South, Buckhead, for Rodeo Drive-style shopping, etc., if that's what you want, all without having to take a taxi!!

If you want to head out to the surrounding area for some touristy stops, there's plenty to wet your appetite, too. Plus ---- Atlanta is so much more beautiful scenery-wise than flat, ugly Dallas.

Even Dallas' skyline is old and dated...........



Atlanta's skyline is much nicer and more modern, reminiscent of New York...




AT&T Stadium is out in the boondocks in Irving, Texas...20 miles from downtown Dallas and 14 miles from DFW Airport (no train service)


Atlanta's Mercedes-Benz Stadium is smack-dab in downtown Atlanta and only 8 miles from ATL Int'l Airport --- by train!



DFW can't compare with The ATL!! End of story.

Also, isn’t it ironic that the SEC was the first league to play a CG and is now a far superior conference and a more iconic brand than any other conference in America?
