You do realize this has happened before in big games?

No backup for things like this? Where is the FEMA tranformer?

Yeah embarrassing for both.
I mean shite happens, but the length of the delay is just ridiculous.

How many generators would it take to run a stadium

Kind of embarrassing, but it's also a freak occurrence. Won't change the fact that NOLA blows every other host city out of the water

pretty sure a SF game lost power in SF in the last 3 years or so. I'd have to imagine that halftime show probably fricked up the circuits somehow.

How so? This is funny. Could have happened anywhere. I imagine its more of something the nfl did than something the city of New Orleans did.

A transformer wouldn't do much good here

But call me crazy, but a generator might help.

And maybe half of it is on backup

Hopefully this doesn't impact NOLA getting future superbowls on the off chance that I move back
