Everything, and I do mean EVERYTHING, in the New Orleans city limits is a shitshow.

Have you noticed their abilities to pump the canals in a drought?

Made it to my first game of the season yesterday.

-Concession lines were long as frick everywhere all game.


I had two minute lines both times I went to the concession stands, was in 200 level, not the the club concessions (lines were long in there pre-game).

Or do what LSU does and offer a fundraising type deal for groups to work the concessions.


They have this but Centerplate / Sodexo Live is an absolute nightmare to partner with especially at the Dome / SKC

A lot of the orgs did not come back after Covid.

They are making up the difference with temp game day only labor from a few staffing companies.

Typical NOLA.


Meh. The food lines, selections, and post game traffic all suck worse at a LSU game

The last Saints game I went to was the playoff game Saints Vs Lions 2012.. Had tickets in one of the corners. Bathrooms were a nightmare. I went right before halftime and didn't get back in my seat until somewhere in the 3rd quarter. I don't go to games enough to get the lay of land as far as bathrooms are concerned. But it seems those corner seats are cut off from bathrooms and concessions..

So they haven't fixed anything since LSU vs. Florida State. Cool.

We were sitting in the terrace for Bucs game and apparently the escalators only empty the UPPER terrace and not lower terrace. Cops roped off the escalators and then told my 8 month pregnant wife (no pics) she to keep walking and she couldn't use the escalator. He said there's more escalators down the hall. There wasn't, Only the stupid new stairs. I was pissed

Why do people want food at a Saints game?
To be fair they do have these bomb-arse pecans I can only seem to find at the Dome.

Bucs and Bengals games were nightmares, but Seahawks game was fine. The exiting down the stairs is certainly a fire hazard. The Dome has never been as bad as it has been this season. A simple fix would be more beer men with ice chests of beer since that's half the lines anyway, especially ones walking in stands. I'm sure it's a staffing issue but I see plenty of workers standing around in front of full refrigerators of beers that could easily multitask. The renovations better fix this shite or season ticket holders are going to drop like flies.

I noticed this isn't a thing anymore. I'm assuming it's because they went cashless so it would be royal pain to have to swipe cards while doing this? Idk, but this could be a big factor for long lines.

When I'm at Seahawks games I just get high AF on edibles and then eat near the stadium after the game at a good restaurant. I don't get the desire to overpay for mediocre food and miss 10 to 20% of the game action that you paid to see while you wait for the mediocre food.

Not criticizing, just something I've come to feel strongly about in recent years.

It's concerning to me that the Saints gameday experience seems to be slipping along with everything else. Definite trends.
