The National Football League (NFL) has announced it will hold its 2013 Pro Bowl at Aloha Stadium for the 33rd time.

Gov. Neil Abercrombie released the following statement:

“This is wonderful news for football fans in Hawaii and elsewhere who love watching the game. It’s also great news for NFL players and their families who enjoy coming to our Aloha State.

“I have had discussions with the Hawaii Tourism Authority (HTA) and the NFL to look at ways in which we can provide a renewed experience for the game next year for the players, visitors, people of Hawaii and fans the world over. Hawaii has a variety of cultural experiences to offer and we want to be sure to highlight our uniqueness beyond the beauty of our landscape.
