It's Time to Quit Playing the ACC Championship in Charlotte

You guys say this every year but the numbers show that Jacksonville, Tampa, and Orlando attendance sucked even when Clemson was in the game. The panthers are pushing hard now with the city trying to build a new stadium or dome the current one. Maybe it will be indoors sooner than you think.

Charlotte sucks , the weather sucks , the stadium sucks ! The only thing worth a crap in that town in recent history was us Canes taking over downtown the night b4 the game .

I lived there for 5 years. **** that city. Gaping ******* of a town in a pretty dress. That's all that place is. No culture, no vibe, people think they walk on water there...no thanks.

I admit that I liked the idea of playing the ACC Championship in Charlotte because it was pretty centrally located as far as the rest of the ACC, but ***** it. The weather is usually cold or wet (like tonight). Either play the game on Friday night in Atlanta or bring it to Orlando or Tampa.

They should play it in Miami so the families of our local kids who go to Clemson can come see their relatives play live.
 
The ACC is controlled by the original members (particularly Duke and UNC). Remember, the ACC has also been for most of its existence primarily a basketball conference. That is why the game is played in Charlotte (the whole Tobacco Road thing). Combine that fact with the contract which runs through 2030 and it becomes very clear that the game isn't moving for a very long time, if ever. None of the other factors referenced above (such as weather and travel logistics for other ACC teams/fans etc) carry any weight at all.
