CHICAGO, Aug. 26 (UPI) -- Oprah Winfrey hints that the final edition of her iconic talk show may be taped next year in Chicago's Soldier Field.

The Chicago Sun-Times said the venue would be appropriate given how many of Winfrey's fans would like to attend the finale and clamor for the goodies she is known for giving out. Although the media mogul has said the field is under consideration, she cautioned it is not a done deal.

"I don't know if that's going to happen," Winfrey told TVGuide.com Wednesday. "You can never count on Chicago weather."

Winfrey, who plans to wrap her syndicated "Oprah Winfrey Show" in September 2011 after 25 seasons to focus on the establishment of OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network, announced last April her plans to headline a program called "Oprah's Next Chapter" on OWN.
