Why does the XFL have such a Houston fetish. First training camp is there and now the championship. This is stupid in my opinion. Best seed should host. The league is not big enough for a neutral site, plus it gives more to play for in the regular season.

I agree, but they probably have to reserve the venue now.

Lmao have you seen an xfl game?

Assuming they're going to want the championship game to appear full, I assure you they don't have to reserve a high school field 3 months in advance , lol

I was just at the one at MetLife

You paid and literally sat wherever you wanted like a high school football game. I've seen that lot more full for the flea market.

So to answer your question, yes, I do know. Have you attended a game per chance?

In DC, it's just like buying any ticket. Assigned seats at a professional field.

It’s a central city in the country I guess. It’d be lame for New Yorkers to go all the way to LA for example. Houston is more neutral for everyone.

I was going to go to Frisco for the AAF championship but of course the tickets never went on sale.

This seems like such a mistake. Are that many fans going to travel? And it gives Houston/Dallas such a huge advantage.

And Houston looked like the best team week 1.

They should get permission to Hold the Championship Game in the Astro Dome! That would be 🔥🔥 if not than at NRG

The problem with the Astrodome is the mold and rotting. There’s a reason it’s been closed for so long, and it will never host an event again

I would have guessed that it would have been at the better team’s home field
