So forgive me for not understanding but are the escalators replacing the ramps completely?
no they cant, they have to keep some ramps because in a power outage they need wheelchair access to exit the stadium.
that disability access limits it

They need to replace all the terrace seats and club endzone seats to get rid of the rainbow 1970s seats.

Some of my favourite childhood memories were running down the colourfully carpeted ramps after a Saints loss with my my dad happily trailing after me and buying me a $2 pennant of different NFL teams out of the shopping cart of all these older black dudes.
Does anyone else remember these "pennant vendors" who would set up shop right outside the dome (up on the concourse) in the 4th quarters? This would be mid to late 80's.
I remember one year they all started charging $3 instead of $2, but they bumped the leftover USFL pennants down to $1, so I wound up with a bunch of random Memphis Showboats and Houston Gamblers pennants.

I brought an elderly relative to a game last year. The only thing they offered to those unable to navigate the stairs was to wait for a single elevator (all escalators were turned off (and are turned off every game for exit)). The lines were terrible and the elevator was used to empty the media level first before ever even stopping to pick up a few at a time.

The ramps are gone to make more room for expanded concourses. Fans with disabilities i think are now all on the plaza level.
