What were you looking at then? Its a great venue especially after the upgrades.

Europe?
It’s a matter of time before NFL goes with an overseas franchise.

Maybe he was in one of the last phases of the renovation where everything hadn’t been upgraded yet or was in the process of upgrades and saw the guts still exposed.
Now some of the ground floor levels still look the same. Once you leave the gate entrance to the Crown Lodge area and head to the locker room or field area, those places still look the same with exposed pipes and some times temporary drape to hide the guts of a 60 year old building.
They did add a press conference room, a media work room, but there is still one area that they still pitch a tent under the bleachers that I think they use for team meals.
It also nice to have 2 elevators to go to the 700 level where the press box is. Although they use only one to shuttle the media, the the other is for handicapped access.

Is there anything that can be done to force the idiot out and get a new owner?

As someone who used to be a fan of NFL football, if they moved , I wouldn’t give a shite.

I would love to know who exactly leaked this story to the press to put pressure on the Saints/Pels ownership.

Gayle and Tom are not the same......

IDGAF.
Pro football is dumb AF now, and unfortunately, due to NIL, college football is quickly headed the same way.

Then why do they keep electing woke corrupt leaders who accelerate its dive into shitehole status.
Agree NOLA is not a major league sports city by population, business community, and overall affluence.
If Gayle is financially wrecking another business this doesn’t bode well for Saints continuity.

Non functioning concession stand card readers, bad food, trough urinals cramped seats. Last game I was there was 2022 LSU v FSU so maybe that’s been fixed
Tiger stadium is a far better venue.

This is all pure political posturing

This thread has provided some great stupidity from the OT per usual.

Tiger Stadium outside of about 2 areas is as no frills as it gets. Dome is comfortable as long as you’re not sitting in the poor seats.

The corruption and incompetence associated with the never-ending projects intended to upgrade the Superdome are staggering.
