The New Orleans Saints are looking to add a center-hung video board to the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, team president Dennis Lauscha said on Monday’s Black and Blue Report.

Lauscha talked about a number of potential upgrades for the New Orleans Arena and Mercedes-Benz Superdome in his interview Monday.

Lauscha said the video boards wouldn’t be part of the “phase 1” changes (changes taking place this season) but would definitely be part of phase 2.

“We are really pursuing (center-hung video board) for the Superdome,” said Lauscha. “We are working on that right now. We think if we can add a center-hung video board to the Superdome it will really help our Super Bowl LII bid in 2018.”

Can we fix all those messed up tiles or whatever on the ceiling at some point?

Definitely. Hopefully it eclipses the Cowgirls' one.

Haven't been to dome since 2011 season. Are there still multicolored seats in terrace? I think just making then all solid colored would be much better looking.

I would assume that they would upgrade the other video boards as well?

eta: this is a good move, they should definitely do it. Jerry's screen is incredible.

I took a tour of the Dome when I was a kid and they said that they did the multi-colored seat thing so the stadium would appear full on TV even when it wasn't...

Guess they didn't anticipate HD, 2006, or Super Bowl 44.
