Miss America may be leaving Atlantic City … again
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. — Miss America may be leaving Atlantic City again.
The Philadelphia Inquirer and Daily News and the Press of Atlantic City report the Miss America Organization is looking for cities around the country interested in hosting the competition.
The newspapers obtained the group’s call for proposals from interested cities via a public records request to the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority, whose contract with Miss America has expired.
The authority contributed $12 million to the organization over the past three years, but it has not reached a deal on Miss America’s funding requests for the 2020 and 2021 pageants.
