From Business First of Columbus:
Columbus on U.S. radar to host World Cup soccer
Columbus has made the cut of 37 American cities that will bid to host soccer’s World Cup matches in 2018 or 2022.
The USA Bid Committee this week said it issued requests for proposals to officials representing 37 U.S. cities, including Columbus, that currently qualify as potential host cities to FIFA World Cup. The proposals ask for information from city officials about tourism, climate, security, transportation and promotion.
