MIAMI (AP) -NFL commissioner Roger Goodell says the Miami Dolphins’ stadium needs more upgrades if South Florida is to remain competitive in the bidding for future Super Bowls.
The 22-year-old stadium underwent $250 million in improvements in 2007 but is still falling behind the competition with new stadiums opening in Dallas, Phoenix, Indianapolis and New York, Goodell said Monday.
Miami will host the Super Bowl for an NFL-record 10th time on Feb. 7. Goodell spoke at a kickoff luncheon for the game.
Deficiencies with the Dolphins’ stadium include lighting and the location of field-level seats, which are not close to the playing field. Dolphins owner Stephen Ross said the franchise is studying possible upgrades.
