NFL-Owners vote to push back LA's Super Bowl hosting date-report

May 23 (Reuters) - NFL owners voted unanimously on Tuesday to relocate the 2021 Super Bowl to Tampa, Florida, from Los Angeles given construction delays on a new stadium that was supposed to host the game, according to a report on the league's website. The NFL's championship game, which is the most watched television event of the year in the United States, will now be played at Tampa's Raymond James Stadium while Los Angeles will host the Super Bowl in 2022, the report said. The vote by league owners came after it was revealed that record-setting rainfall in Los Angeles forced the Rams and Chargers to push back the opening date of their joint stadium project by a year to 2020. Los Angeles, which is currently vying with Paris to host the 2024 Summer Olympics, was selected last year as host of the 2021 Super Bowl but the NFL requires a stadium to be open for two seasons before it can host the game. Minneapolis, Atlanta and South Florida will host the next three Super Bowls. (Reporting by Frank Pingue in Toronto; Editing by Larry Fine)
