It's finally happening. M-B is being painted on the roof of the dome. Looks like its starting today on the West side of the building.

Looks trashy. One of the things that makes the Superdome iconic is that white dome that looks so perfect. Now it's plastered with a giant billboard on two sides! Thanks for the clown lights too, Mercedes! Germans.

Can't link from my phone but wwl has a story on it. They're painting Mercedes -Benz superdome on the east and west sides if the roof and the MB logo in the center. Planning to have it done by Thursday before the final 4 starts.

Jon Hamm is recording replacing Jerry Romig as PA announcer under the sponsorship agreement.

Remember, Mercedes fired the guy that inked the contract renaming the Dome the day or week after the ink dried.

The dome is a landmark Mercedes didn't want.

how do you know he was fired for the dome? Seems like a reach to me.

Edit: just looked it up. He was fired because he was basically stealing money from them

The Superdome is one of the most recognizable stadiums in the world.

omg, so trashy.

I love the fact that Mercedes hasn't gone overboard with any of their advertising. Couldn't have asked for a better sponsor
