LOS ANGELES — Munich during Oktoberfest with the appetizing smell of sausages, sauerkraut and beer as the backdrop?
Rio de Janeiro with its loud, boisterous and always colorful carnival atmosphere or Mexico City amid the lively sounds of mariachi bands and the accompanying chants of exuberant spectators?
Any of these three locations could very well end up playing host to a Super Bowl in years to come if the National Football League's (NFL) strategy to expand the sport globally continues to gather pace.
Pie in the sky? Many pundits think so, given that the NFL will remain King of the Hill in the United States for the foreseeable future where its television ratings are richly prized.
