Can you care to explain why KC and Seattle got picked over say DC/DMV or Chicago?
Boston I kinda get. On the East coast and is an iconic American city. You want people in cities that leave them with a lasting impression or in a city that has the infrastructure to hold such an event.
I think I get Seattle. I think the Sounders have the best football culture in the US so for the WC they’d have events for the fans. Cool.
uhhh ... Kansas City is probably the biggest consistent soccer city in the midwestern USA that supports soccer, bro. SKC has been one of the best supported teams for so long and they get games there damn near every Gold Cup. The team doesn't win as much as they used to but the support is still there.
