Get your long johns ready. Arizona has dropped out of the bidding for the 2014 Super Bowl — the one to be awarded in May — which leaves the new stadium at the Meadowlands as the clear front-runner to get the game.

Other sites bidding for it are South Florida and Tampa, which have hosted the last two Super Bowls. A victory for the Meadowlands seemed like a foregone conclusion when owners waived the weather requirement — temperate weather or a roofed stadium for the game.

The bid for the game has been presented as a joint venture by the Giants and Jets and the game will be awarded in May. The game would be a one time event, a reward to the teams for building a new stadium, and an opportunity for the N.F.L. to put the game in the nation’s biggest media market. Dallas hosts the Super Bowl next year, followed by Indianapolis and New Orleans.


Let's do it, Giants built new stadium just for that event! If you like Florida and get cold easily, just watch it on the TV. It will be great!
