In 2013, the Vikings went 5-10-1, started three different
quarterbacks and had the worst-scoring defense in football. Five months
after that season ended, the NFL announced that Super Bowl LII would be
played in Minnesota’s new $1.1 billion stadium in February 2018.
The
NFL can’t predict how good or bad the future host team will be years
down the road, but in 51 tries they’ve been fortunate—a franchise has
never played for a Super Bowl title at its home stadium. That luck may
be running out this winter.
