re: Caesars Superdome Renovation updates

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.
