But when you add in Lucas Oil Stadium, which is connected to the Convention Center, that supposedly adds "up to 183,000 contiguous square feet of space." I have no idea if anyone seriously explored Indianapolis as an option though. Maybe time they should if they haven't yet.

62k square feet is smaller than the typical chain grocery store. The Indianapolis Convention Center is much larger than that
The ballrooms are 62k sf but the main exhibit hall is 566k sf of contiguous space

That said, I live here and would love for it to be here. But flights to Chicago are a lot easier
