The important thing is state government is no longer directly subsidizing them. That is a win for everybody. This is a great day.

Exactly. It relieves the state of direct subsidies for at least the next ten years.

The Dome doesn't earn enough that it still has to be subsidized by the state?

This is a great win for the Superdome. It's a great win for the Saints. It's a great win for the citizens of the state to go from nearly losing the team and now we are off the hook for a while in paying any direct subsidies to the organization to keep them here in New Orleans. It's a wonderful transition that this superdome has gone through really in a fairly short amount of time of only like 6 years. Thanks katrina.

I hate to say it cause it sucked for a few months, but that storm may have been one of the best things to happen in my life.. Sadly.
