Wut? The Popeyes Chickenz Sammich Dome?

NAME: BlackandGold.com Superdome
FIELD NAME: Roger Goddell-Gate Ref-Robbing Field

RULES: Depending on how bad the ref calls are during games will determine how much urine is in the Gatorade the refs drink. Good calls, no controversy - clean water and good food. Bad calls - drinks laced in pee and after game goose liver that's - well let's just say they'll be motivated to make decent calls!

The Amazon Superdome.
Why?
Only because Amazon is big in meaning.
Amazon Rainforest

Bezos, like him or not or like Amazon or not?
So what!

For laughs....
The Cocoa-Cola Superdome

The GEICO Superdome

The All State Superdome. I am with GEICO, but I like how All State Superdome sounds.

The China Superdome because China needs to be bankrupted and it sounds like the movie, The China Syndrome.

The CNN FoxNews Superdome
ehhh?

Seriously, some big company has to do it. It could end up Walmart Superdome.
The end of times. That would be the ultimate , UGH!!!
Lawd hep' mer'c.

Like we all have said, ummm it is The Dome. The Superdome.
The Dome.
The place where you saw concerts and the Ringling Bros Circus.
Yearly Bayou Classic and Sugarbowl.
Superbowls.
Where parades ended and you , your school that marched in the parades boarded your high school bus back to school.
Ok, going back in time. off subject. Anybody remember The Rivergate. Parades ended there too.

We shall see what company picks it up.

Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Oracle, I'd be ok with any of those. I can only hope it would also propel one of those companies to open a branch and provide some much needed tech industry jobs in the area.

As long as Louisiana politics stay the way they have been none of these companies would ever step foot in Louisiana. It’s a shame because it would be an economical game changer.

Atlanta is paying them to put their name on their stadium.
