Five possible locations for Celebration V

Are Baltimore, Minneapolis, Chicago, Indianapolis and Orlando the finalists for Celebration V?

Yes, I saw this over the weekend, but I figured they were drawing that city list from the Force-Cast’s interview with Sansweet: Old news. Except… I didn’t type out that part. So lo, TFN made news of it (again, thus illustrating my number one issue with news and podcasts, but that’s another post) and it’s all over the internet.

Let the haggling, whining, and bitching begin (or continue.) Quite frankly, as long as it’s not Florida (or at least not Disney World) I don’t care.

He himself namedropped Chicago as a possible location for Celebration V, and the speculation to that effect has been flying fast and heavy ever since. So there’s a possibility that something might get announced or at least hinted at this weekend:
