Remind me again why the world cup isn't hosted in this country. If not every time, then at least on time every 20 years or something. Keep in mind that these are some of the smaller stadiums they could arrange and we could probably have a world cup with 20 90k+ seat stadiums.

The world cup could be successfully hosted in California alone

Because FIFA love getting kickbacks off infrastructure "investment".

Because there isn't a overwhelming love of association football.

Because bench seats might ramp up capacity figures but actually mean a stadium would score awfully when you graded it. FIFA use a similar system to UEFA.

Because they're all fucking thousands of miles apart.

England is objectively the best country to host World Cups and/or Euros in. But they should move around the world like they do anyway, it'd be dumb to host it in the same place repeatedly.

see
if distance is an issue for you

Yes, which diminishes the purpose of hosting it in murka. Also you have to factor in FIFA regulations. Does California have 12 stadiums in at least 11 different cities? I don't know that's why I'm asking. But I doubt California could match England for stadia, and not only that California is bigger than England thus the venues are further apart. And public transport in murka is fucking shit so good luck getting everyone to move around comfortably.

>Does California have 12 stadiums in at least 11 different cities?

Los Angeles L.A. Memorial Coliseum 93 607
Pasadena Rose Bowl Stadium 92 542
San Diego Qualcomm Stadium 71 294
Santa Clara Levi's Stadium 68 500
Berkeley Memorial Stadium 63 186
Oakland O.co Coliseum 63 026
Stanford Stanford Stadium 50 000
Fresno Bulldog Stadium
San Jose Spartan Stadium 30 456

well, that makes 9

Also are all of them suitable for hosting World Cup games? I know a bunch of the big stadiums in amerifatland don't even have real seats, it's just a bunch of benches.

College stadiums are the ones with benches mostly.

All the NFL stadiums besides green bay have seats I'm pretty sure.

You could host the entire World Cup in California, New York, And Texas without having to build a single stadium. Not to mention if you did it regionally you could host it literally anywhere in the country and we wouldn't even have to destroy rainforests or use Tibetan slave labor

And then you still have the problem with California, New York and Texas being thousands of miles apart. You could definitely do it with local multi-state regions but there's no region you could do it in that is anywhere near as small as England. Face it, no matter what you say you can't match England. I guess murka could plough millions of dollars into building a bunch of white elephant stadiums if you must, but just using current infrastructure nobody comes close to England. We'd definitely use the money to improve some infrastructure if we got the World Cup but it'd all continue to be used to its full potential after the World Cup.

CA is building the hyperloop, connecting LA and SF, plus LA is building another soccer stadium, and the Inglewood stadium which will be the best in the world upon its completion.

Americans would literally get furious if it was here every four years. Not even joking, there would be legit protests.

LA has an NFL stadium under construction.

because the US is a boring shitty country with no football culture

even qatar has more football fans than usa

So two more LA stadiums which means you can knock the Rose Bowl and the Memorial Coliseum off this list The "hyperloop" sounds like a good start but you've still got a long way to go with public transport.

Also most/none of your stadiums are dedicated football stadiums which is a negative no matter which way you twist it.

Because FIFA love bribes and fraud; when they host it somewhere new or different, they get paid extra to do so.

Also because America, on average, sees more innocents die in gunfights than every other country in the world added together. Something to think about

because fifa is corrupt and politicians are corrupt

Stadium capacity isn't everything.

Americans can't even play the correct national anthem for teams and all their venues are baseball stadiums largely unfit for FIFA regulations

True say, You need a couple of cheeky 30,000~ stadiums in there for your run of the mill Saudi Arabia v Cameroon games and the like. England has enough large stadiums for the important big games.

Host between DC and New York. Plenty of cities, stadiums, hotels, and airports all connected by various trains and busses. Happy?

Because we don't want it. Traffic is bad enough without a bunch of Europeans milling about and whining about the lack of socialist vegan abortion clinics.

Not to mention enough Arabs and Africans to actually fill those games.

Otherwise they can import Greeks who look like Arabs

We look like Turks though.

Give me 12 stadiums in the NY-DC corridor, include New England if you'd like too, and the stadiums must be split by no less than 11 cities, all must be at least 30,000 attendance and equipped for hosting football, and at least half of them must be over 50,000.

You realize every stadium has shuttles from every hotel now. That along with every tourist trap imaginable built around them.

Turks and Arabs are literally the same people divided by linguistic borders

The US is nearly as big as all of Europe. If you host a world cup or the olympics in US, it has to be confined to 1 city or state, as thats the equivalent of a European country.

Alternatively, a single average European city has as much history as an American state.

It's the transportation between the vast distances between your cities that is the main issue. And your internal flights are prohibitively expensive and the TSA is a fucking joke so if you're expecting people to take several flights try again.

>muh history

The US was a fucking uninhabited island for centuries. No fucking shit European cities have more "history".

Oh and in the current day, your precious European cities are developing no history while everything is happening in the states.

that hyperloop wont be completed until 2030.

You realize baseball stadiums can host soccer games right. Yankee Stadium had 50k show up for Real Madrid vs AC Millan. There are plenty of football and baseball stadiums around that area.

It really should be passed between GOAT England and GOAT Germany with the occasional venture elsewhere sell shirts to chinks. Two best countries by a distance to host WC

>uninhabited
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

who

Weve all seem those horror pics of footy pitches stuffed at an off angle into boreball stadiums. The Italians would refuse to play in such ghastly surroundings

1. Beaver Stadium (106,000)-University Park, PA
2. MetLife (82,500)-East Rutherford, NJ
3. Fed Ex (82,000)-Landover, MD
4. M&T Bank (71,000)-Baltimore, MD
5. Lincoln (70,000)-Philadelphia, PA
6. Heinz (70,000)-Pittsburgh, PA
7. Gillette (68,000)-Foxborough, Mass
8. Franklin (52,000)-Philadelphia, PA
9. Byrd (51,000)-College Park, MD
10. Carrier Dome (49,000)-Syracuse, NY
11. Alumni (44,000)-Chestnut Hill, MAss


Why "no less than 11 cities", though? That seems extremely restrictive.

Obviously you've never been to California.. LA would have 4 stadiums 21 miles form each other.. SF would have 3 less than 40 from each other.

And if Pittsburgh is too far away, it can be replaced with High Point Stadium (NJ, 52000 seats) or Navy Stadium in Annapolis (30000)

The reason is corruption. Football is already popular in the Arab world.

After the USA got conned out of hosting, the Americans went after FIFA.

Funny by the way, how FIFA corruption was an English obsession, yet in the end the English media were fully vindicated.

As an SU student, I'm not sure if my city could actually support an additional 50,000 people showing up. Also the yuros would flip their shit since it's an 'indoor' stadium.

To be fair, the Italians are barely more relevant than us currently.

Unironically this, though. With the occasional trip to South America and maybe letting us host one every 30 years.

It's not about how large your stadiums are, what's the point when the crowd is filled with casual Ameriblobs who've never watched a game.

I'd rather watch a game in Estonia with a capacity of 5,000 than in one of your 90,000 domes.

The groups would be centered on regions

Worst case scenario is a Greyhound from Portland to Seattle or Boston to NYC, transport is not a problem

Following a World Cup in person is hardly a poor man's endeavour in any case

99.999% of the audience is watching on TV

No one cares about your Alan Partridge view of America

>when the crowd is filled with casual Ameriblobs who've never watched a game.
casual ameriblobs do this they sure as hell wouldn't pay for a ticket and travel, except maybe to see a USA group stage game

>It's not about how large your stadiums are

The guy I was responding to (not sure if it was you or not) seemed to think it was about that, since he only asked for football stadiums with a minimum capacity of 30,000 each.

I am sure their would be tons of people wearing turbans in the stands to make it what you are used to.

>implying that casual American fans would even go to games

The stadiums would be full of latinos and foreigners, the Americans would all be watching baseball or something.

Good, we have enough wop shits here already. They can keep their greasy asses at home then.

if they took the greyhound they would be murdered by niggers at 3 am outside a bus stop

By humans he meant. Injuns were wildlife.

No one gives a fuck what your broke ass wants. The less yuropoors that come here the better as far as we're concerned.

Let's just host every EC and WC in Germany. This seems like a fair compromise.

CHI

CAGO

My list, but yeah pretty similar:
DC Area:
RFK
FedEx
Maryland Stadium
DC United's new stadium (dunno capacity)

New York Area:
MetLife Stadium
Red Bull (requires expansion)

Bombston:
Gillette
Harvard Stadium
Alumni Stadium

Filthy:
Franklin Field
Lincoln
Expand Talen Energy

If you want a fun one:
Yale Bowl

They aren't invited either, after November they're all going back.

BULLS

You mean January, right?
Election date != First day in office

I meant in each of those states individually

They'll start self deporting in November to avoid the wrath of an angry nation they have shit up and sucked on like the leaches they are.

San diego, oakland, and berkely are hundreds of miles apart you smelly pepe

So are Munich, Hamburg, and Berlin, but nobody ever let that get in the way of a German WC bid.

Kek they're 1000 miles away you dum midwestern.
Also
>fresno
Who the fuck in their right mind would want to go there?

>implying clap land could ever host a successful WC without the all encompassing travel support of the european fans.
Half fulled beaner stadiums aren't successful. It would be disasterous without England

as far as I know, they're still all in California, which was precisely what was asked here

none of those use bench seats

If you're actually interested in why, only Italy, France, Germany and Brazil have hosted the World Cup twice. And there are plenty of other serious footballing nations with an appropriate level of infrastructure to do so, let alone those that would like to host it for the second time - Spain, Russia, England. Given that the US hosted it only 22 years ago, it is unlikely you will be a viable candidate for a long time.

I live in Cali, in LA, and trust me it would be awful. Traffic is already bad, the distance from LA stadia, san diego, and Northern California is way too much.
Just leave it in England desu

>Brazil

No.

distance isnt a problem and never has been

see: Brazil

US is pretty shit for hosting these events because of lack of good public transport.

the us is bigger than all of Europe

what is wrong with the people in this thread?

>the US can't fill up their own stadiums without yuropoors
We literally have hundreds of real football games a week that are attended, you are not needed or wanted. In fact I hope Trump bans yuropoors from visiting during the event. There's no reason to ruin an American event by turning it into the worlds largest display of skinny jeans and homosexuality.

>the us is bigger than all of Europe
"No." Europe is bigger in both population and area.

>USA world cup
>match starts 02:00 at night
noty

Because native crowd atmosphere is shit, except for the spics and chicano illegals.

>only Italy, France, Germany and Brazil have hosted the World Cup twice'

Mexico did too

yeah if you include russia

may as well include canada at that point

Wasn't that only because Colombia backed out at the last minute?

The fuck do you care? No one in yurop has a job anyway.

>England

Your shitty country is basically Qatar. Can't host it back to back in islamik shit holes

ITT: European trash gets BTFO

IM FROM Italy too but live in USA. Stop being retards you cucks

But Russia is a part of Europe. Canada isn't a part of the United States, they're a part of North America. Surely you can't be retarded enough to not know the difference between a continent and a country.

They try to set the same-group games in stadium "close" to each others, actually.

Games will be held in Marseille and Lille in the next Euro, yet those 2 cities are more than 1000 km appart.

the whole of russia is never included in europe tho. it is only included in continental discussions, which is not what this was

Fuck off. We don't want your shitty sport.

American exit from fifa for "corruption concerns" when?

fuck off retard

Let's have a comparison of Texas and France now. Italy > dog shit > france

>the whole of russia is never included in europe tho

No, only the European part, obviously.

Chicanos are american. Wetbacks have to go back though

I say we just arrest the entirety of FIFA and declare the US sole winner of the World Cup, which will be renamed the Cool Ranch Dorittos Freedom Cup, for the next thousand years.

Go back to your mls general. Real Americans are talking here.

because there's literally no football hype in the land of merika

but I don't give a fuck about mls when all they do is bring in 18 year old mexicans and 40 year old yuros

>part of a political entity

just give it up m8

you blew it

>oakland, and berkely are hundreds of miles apart
Literally both in Alameda

Should've picked better examples
