The SportsGrad Podcast #61: Aubrey Walton (NFL) - How to Choose the Location of the Super Bowl
Want to know how the host city is picked each year to hold the Super Bowl?
As the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Kansas City Chiefs playoff in Super Bowl LV, Aubrey Walton will be busy at Raymond James Stadium putting together the final pieces of a day five years in the making.
After chasing her dream to work in the NFL, Aubrey left her 900 population home town of Sycamore, Ohio to make the move to one of more than 4 million in Los Angeles.
She now leads the committee of people who choose the location of the Super Bowl, NFL Draft and Pro Bowl each year.
In this must-listen episode, Aubrey takes us behind-the-scenes into the criteria and process the NFL undertakes to choose the host city of the Super Bowl and reveals some of the outstanding pitches from city’s vying for her teams' attention and ultimate right to host the annual Championship game.
Plus, we find out how Aubrey prepared for 11 interviews over 3 months (yes that’s 11), flying between Los Angeles and New York City, for her job at the NFL and explore how she has grown as a leader, from intern to director, over her career.
Before you tune into the biggest event in sport, enjoy listening to Aubrey’s remarkable journey!
