Pac 12 Championship Game Update

Larry Scott's brainchild of having it at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara is once again poised to generate tons of non-momentum for the Pac12 Conference.
Friday night in early December when everyone employed in the USA is at a company holiday party? CHECK
Week night in the Bay Area at the confluence of 3 of the most congested freeways in the entire state (880 meets 101 meets 237)? CHECK
Forecast is the midst of an "atmospheric river" with cold temperatures? CHECK
Stadium notoriously hard to get to during rush hour? CHECK
Location where nobody gives a fuck about either Oregon or Utah? CHECK
Location where it only theoretically works as a hometown venue for Stanford...whose total enrollment is maybe 17,000 students and 11,000 of those are graduate students (don't give a fuck about sports) and a ton more of the students come from somewhere outside of the USA (don't give a fuck about college sports) so even if Stanford was in the game nobody will show up? CHECK
Larry's private jet can easily take off from the municipal airport near his palacious home in the East Bay (on a work from home Friday of course) and land at Moffett Field (a fairly short yet congested limousine ride from Levi's Stadium)? CHECK
Last item to clear...
Location where the PoorAgain fans will have to drive to the game, but will likely get stuck on the North side of the Siskiyou Pass and will thus sit in a motel room in Ashland and watch the game while throwing cans and fast food wrappers at the TV when Justin Herbert continues to tank his draft stock? TBD

It needs to be in Vegas with LA a distant second.
