If you build it they will come. The Miami Fort Lauderdale area is full of potential owners many unable to travel for fantasy football. Tennessee would be a big mistake, I read someone mentioned Dolly world and a couple of other attractions available. Name me one fantasy football owner that would go to Dolly world.. Not a ONE!!!!!

2) Why are many in that area unable to travel?

I think for the 4th city, its not about attraction of the city but about football popularity. After all, if you're gonna travel, Vegas and NY have to be at the top of the list.

The 4th city is about convenience so where can you draw in a large number of signups? From football centric havens, Dallas, Miami, and San Francisco come to mind.

Miami is nearly as expensive as NYC.

$750 EF for NBC Main would being in enough new players (due to being more affordable) that you'd be able to keep the $100K prize.

Hell, if you're considering Memphis, I'll toss Indianapolis into the frey. Clean, safe, casinos, great nightlife, Indy 500 Museum, AAA Baseball in one of the finest ballparks in the country, the Canal, great eats, centrally located, and 30 minutes from my home.

I'd also toss in St. Louis.

IMO, you need to have the 4th city be a place that is easy to drive & fly to. It has to have a major airport, and have enough to do to make it a 4 day mini-vacation. I think if you follow this thinking, Miami is out (who wants to drive from northern FL to Miami?

I could list 25 cities I'd want to visit before I got to Memphis, nothing personal.

Maybe keep the NFFC/NBC events at $1300 and add a 3rd event in the $750 range?! You could do this one live/phone/online and bring in tons of new $$$.

WCOFF tried Dallas this year and it bombed

Most people in San Francisco or LA would rather go to Vegas.

I don't have any Florida knowledge, but Miami may be the last hope - personally I would try Atlanta - not that far for the Floridians.

Dolly is Nashville...and nobody gives a flip about Nashville.
