Effort begins on bid to get Super Bowl here in 2012

IndyStar.com:
"Work is under way on a bid to lure the Super Bowl to Indianapolis in 2012, the president of the city's convention and visitors association said Friday.

Indianapolis is the first city to publicly express its interest, though New Orleans, Phoenix and Tampa, Fla., are likely contenders.

The city faces an April 1 deadline to submit its bid. NFL team owners are expected to decide at their annual meeting in June in Atlanta where the 2012 Super Bowl will be held.

Bob Bedell, the president and CEO of the Indianapolis Convention & Visitors Association, said Indianapolis should have an easier time preparing this bid based on its experience in vying for the 2011 Super Bowl. That game went to Dallas."
