SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- The College Football Hall of Fame, which never managed to attract the number of visitors its organizers hoped for after moving it to South Bend in 1995, is being moved to Atlanta to bring it more exposure, organizers told the city.

The National Football Foundation notified the city of South Bend in a letter Tuesday that it is terminating its agreement with the city when its current lease ends on Dec. 31, 2010.

"We take this action not because of any failure on your part, but because we have an opportunity to take the exposure of the Hall of Fame to an entirely new level," wrote Archie Manning, chairman of the National Football Foundation and the College Football Hall of Fame.

Like Atlanta needs something else to make that traffic any worse.

Good move, IMO of course.

:sad: I only went once but the enshrinement week was pretty cool. Of course I never had enough $$ to go to the dinners and what not, but I had hopes to do so in the future.
