I would like to see it in Vegas on Lake Mead. That's a destination that I would probably fly to and the wife would tag along. I wouldn't mind seeing a California Classic either. I'm thinking the next one will be in Alabama

It would make for close weights but would be a real yawner to watch.

I vote Lavon. Meets all criteria, except good bass fishing.
Just need something to light a fire under some COE butt to get the ramps functional I doubt Texas gets another Classic anytime soon. We talk loud then fail to support these big events.

Texas wasn't the problem, having it in the city of Houston was the problem. You're average bass fisherman hasn't no interest in going into a MAJOR city like Houston and dealing with the craziness and traffic. I'm in Shreveport/Bossier and the location/traffic is what kept me away from the Houston Classic. If it was ever in the right location in Texas, it would blow the attendance records away. I vote Lavon. Meets all criteria, except good bass fishing.

At some point there is going to be a classic in Springfield Mo. Or at least Branson, MO. I would love to attend the classic in either of these two locations.

I would love to see the classic on Clear Lake or the California Delta. But i feel like they lose so much money when they have them out there, good as fishing as anywhere in the country but so much money to actually have them there.

Back on the Red River would be nice, it's always a challenge with the water the way it is this time of year.

I'm guessing Bama or Florida for next one. I'm betting Bama too. I'd also like to see them hold the Classic at an East Tennessee lake. Lake Cumberland, Douglas Lake, Percy Priest, Dale Hollow, Cherokee Lake, Center Hill, Watts Bar, Nickajack, even Chickamauga. You have numerous lake to choose from and I feel like Knoxville is close enough for these lakes, except maybe Nickajack and Chick. Id like to see it on one of these lakes also. Dale Hollow would be cool. I grew up fishing Center Hill, still one of my favorite lakes and try to go up and fish it every summer. Closer to Knoxville might be better attendance wise though.

Don't forget KVD setting a new lake record on Lewisville with a 11-13 in a BASS tournament back in 2013!

A classis on the Chic would be pretty awesome. A saw a 42lb bag recently. If Toledo was closer to Shreveport, that's an option. They've driven that far before. Would be a great classic with multiple patterns happening at once.
