LOL that they think it takes 15 min to get to the Dome.

(Even with a presidential motorcade. C'mon...)

Any chance he takes Marine 1 to the dome from Kenner?

He might land at Belle Chase. This might be normal head fake.

How does the suite situation work when POTUS wants one last minute ? Does he go into one of the ESPN executive suite( don’t imagine he’d be popular there) ? Give him his own suite? Guest of a particular suite holder? They’re all sold already, do they take one and shuffle the occupants to other suites?

I’m genuinely intrigued about this. Is it common in the US for elected officials (including the POTUS) to wander out of the stadium before the end of a sporting event? Is this a security measure?


Yes, POTUS generally always leaves well before the end of a game so as to not interfere with the general public exiting the stadium.

There must be alot Democrats on here. If Obama was coming to the game, the Chocolate City would rejoice.


No one should rejoice at this, regardless of political leanings.

It’s not about our politics, it’s a huge pain in the arse for fans and the dude isn’t even a fan and is leaving at half time.

He will probably be in the Benson suite or the governors suite

The state Republican Party has a suite for the game. He will be sitting with them.

What do us think..they are going to roll up to the mezzanine level and walk him through the gate?
Gates Wong close. He will bring him in through bottom to designated elevator and up to suite. You, nor anyone else, will even know he’s arrived until he hangs out the suite.


They absolutely pause people coming in and out when he arrives/leaves. This is a fact. He will not use a public gate, but neither will anyone else during that period.

I heard that it's deemed more dangerous to have POTUS in the air than it is on the interstate. Makes sense that they wouldn't helicopter him to the dome.
