How do they compare with the Saints games of last year?

Also, do they have to desanitize the dome after each home game *cue "that's racist" remarks*

I have been to a ton of falcons games but the only reason I have been to the superdome was for the sugar bowl. So I am of no use to you here

It has the atmosphere of people feeling like they should be there but also not really caring that much.

Kind of like a high school graduation.

I hate football in a dome. I hate Falcons games in that dome a lot.

If someone gave me tix, I would probably give them away myself.

Its got the nicest corridor of any stadium that I have ever been to. Wide selection of food and very clean.

I was surprised and impressed.

I didn't go to any Saints games last year, but compared to Saints games in the past, the GA dome is a very sterile environment. The crowd is "late arriving" and they need to be told when to cheer.

never been to a saints game in NOLA but the falcons games have a slightly better atmosphere than most on here wanna give them credit for.

pretty passionate black fan base. it's nothing special though, i dont wanna give it too much credit. pretty average would be a good wording i guess.

stadium itself is nice on the inside and pretty clean too. it's a decent place.

I have been to Falcons games, but none yet this year; I have been to Saints games, but not last year.

I think you'll be hard pressed to find a fan who has been to an Atlanta game this year and a Saints game last year.

That said, based on my experience in the past, I think that you will find that the Falcons crowds are not as rowdy or excited or enthusiastic (or whatever you want to call it) as the Saints fans.

False. There's a reason that there was a season ticket waiting list 50K strong long before last season.

IMO Its more family oriented and polite than Saint's games.

Granted it has been 8 or so years since I have been to a Saints vs. Falcons game in NOLA.

I remember going to falcons games as a child and seeing saints fans wearing bags over there heads. I'm hoping for the same on the 27th.
