Personally I love the idea of renovating it as opposed to scrapping it in favor of some new, shiny corporate tool. It is an ICON. The images I see during game broadcasts - well, it looks like it belongs. It is truly a part of New Orleans and of Louisiana and I'd rather renovate it than deep six it.

It means something. It's a symbol...and not just for Katrina. My brother goes to all the home games and tells me it's quite nice, and I'm sure this next round of renovations will make it even better. It does still look modern, and it is synonymous with New Orleans. I'm happy to see the state invest in its history rather than try to keep up with Jerry and boys...those new Stadiums have no heart.

If you haven't been to the Superdome in years, you'll see vast improvements, they showed this season, The Bathrooms are IMMACULATE! Something fans have been screaming for some time.
The Concessions could use some expanding but i think that is part of the renovating..
Im happy they are adding LCD screens to the lobby and all but the Superdome don't need all of that really.. i don't see the point in walking past expensive LCD screens.. then again Walmart has em in the frozen food sections and at the cash registers so perhaps it's cheaper in bulk or that particular brand or something?
