Imagine sitting in your terrace seats at a New Orleans Saints game in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome and having a view of downtown New Orleans?


You can witness a touchdown and a murder all from the same seat!

What if, instead of a dingy, concrete parking lot, a lush grass tailgate park fed the Gate C entrance to the stadium?


And empty concrete pedestals. Or that water feature they're planning. It'll look real nice next to the Dave & Busters. I wonder if we can get a Red Lobster and Applebee's down there to complete the look.

Can we have some confederate statues tucked away in this proposed tailgate park?

The statues were holding us back.

The state's trying to get ahead of the game before the Saints can threaten moves to St Louis or San Diego and blackmail us into a brand new $3 billion stadium.

I heard red lobster has some great cheese biscuits. Can't wait to try them after a game in the Sheila Jackson Lee Reparations Dome.

From the same folks who brought you this while we were on the biggest stage of the world?

Nope



There's a phrase related to pouring piss out of a boot that comes to mind.

Have you guys even read any of these articles?

Saints/Pels leases aren't up until 2025 but they are all consulting on what can be done to the venues to get out ahead of the leases. For instance, there was about 40 mill in improvements this offseason and Benson paid for most of it.

Lauscha even mentions, specifically, that the State has problems that are much bigger priorities.

Most than likely you'd see some kind of Hotel Tax that only effects tourists.

Write your state representatives to vote no unless Bobby Lee is put on top the dome, PGT is at the entrance of the new park, and Davis welcomes visitors at the main entrance!

No bring back the footbridge to the Hyatt, no care. The Hyatt's my go-to for events at the Dome or Smoothie King, but man, having to go out on Loyola and walk all the way around when I used to be able to just walk directly outside the Dome burns my arse. That hotel is yuge.
