It's our practice facility (Alario Center in Westwego) that is complete and utter shite and needs to be replaced.


We are getting a new one near the Saints facility

It's below average looking and fairly unattractive
on the outside - RIGHT NOW. But when they do the renovations on the outside, it should look a whole lot better.

Inside, it compares to most NBA arenas, maybe needs some more suites and some touch-ups. But for the most part, it's pretty nice inside.

Man the world is just full of butthurt today. I wonder if they realize it's too late for their whining to do any good.

Chris Mannix of SI called it "horrendous" on Dan Patrick this morning. I haven't been to any other NBA arenas, so I can't really say if it's true or if it's more of the "NOLA is falling apart and they have no fans" rhetoric that pops up from time to time. I'm guessing a little bit of both.

I think a lot of it stems around it was built as a "cookie cutter" budget arena when it was built. Remember when it was built we didn't have the hornets so it's hard to pump tons of money into a building which would only house minor league ice hockey.
