Super Dome construction

How is the construction between the Super Dome and Champions Square going? When I was here a couple of weeks ago it was all barricaded off and there was construction equipment all over the place. Are the LaSalle Street ramps ready for use yet or do I have to use the Poydras Street ramps? Any information will be helpful.

According to Doug Thornton with SMG, Champions Square will not be ready for Friday but believes it will be ready for the second preseason game. If you have an android phone there is an app called Bless You Boys that WWL runs that's pretty good with content. I'm sure it's also available for I-phones but I don't have one so don't know for sure.

Dang! I hate using the Poydras Street ramp because of all that congestion around the Gate A entrance. It's about like trying to walk down Bourbon Street during Mardi Gras. Thanks though.

At least they are all Saints fans. Well, mostly.

Nice pics here on Superdome.com.
Looks great. I can't wait to see the improvements.
Looks like my old section 110 also got a nice little price upgrade.

I consider myself VERY lucky that my section wasn't one that got an upgrade. Some of my friends sitting in plaza and club had their ticket prices DOUBLED!

thats crazy. the last thing I need is "amenities". all I need is my team, something that functions as grass, a football, a place to go the bathroom, and my seat.

if they want to "upgrade," I could use some extra butt-room.

so glad to be in the TERRACE!
