Yeah plus I would imagine Baltimore are throwing money the way of the two unions, or making it worth their while some way or other. NYC or DC or many of the other cities have no reason to roll out the red carpet - they have plenty of international visitors coming to town at all times of he year.
It's a smart play for them -;they are amongst the teams bidding to host matches in 2031 and this will give their bid a real boost since they will be able to point to successfully hosting a test match. I believe they have had the Springboks there in the past too.

@KiwiMurph the other thing is the grass needs to be for rugby, so often the non-rugby pitches tear up massively.

ie; the ground in Melbourne (can't remember name), and even Suncorp is not that good.

Wherever the Rebels used to play, always cut up anyway.

Lol mate, probably, went down to a game there with a couple of mates when I lived in Brissy, but buggered if I took any notice of name.

So when he says the board nailed it, does he mean they made the correct decision, even though he was a Razor favourite?

Wish they would have a game in Western US, it will sell out where ever they play it anyway.
Vote for Seattle. Or Portland. Or Vancouver.
But knowing that every time they play on the Best Coast, they'll do fucking California.
