quantum Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 "well according to CNN right now, it seems like a portion of the Superdome roof is coming loose and may peel off " So, an open air stadium at last! For New Orleans, you want an indoor facility. Look back at their history and you'll know why they have a legit reason.

cyandlux Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 When I read this last night I was thinking that the ONLY way they would move their home games is if the Superdome got substatial damage....we'll see how bad it is later this week. Good luck to the people of the Gulf and to the people in the Superdome, our thoughts are with you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBGKon Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 dude, that really sucks, do you think this could warrant the Saints moving games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sec19Row53 Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 I'm not sure how much damage that is. It may just be a white outer covering blown off of a dark colored roof. What I've heard is that there are some leaks that are small when compared to the overall size of the roof (4-5 feet). It's where I sit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dilbert Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 Wow, that's some damage Give the dome a Band-Aid! I dont know if its just the darkness of the domes roof but it almost looks like the roof itself could use replacing. Like I said earlier, remove the roof and have the Saints play a season ala the Montreal Expos did few years ago.

BCBoy Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 Wow, not good for the Saints and their Superdome.Since likely the Saints won't be able to play their first couple games at the Superdome, they'll have to play in a different city (no brainer) some suggest they may play as far away as New York, but where ever they might play what will happen to the season ticket holders?

The Zephyrs in the PCL... what a crazy thing, a team based in the coast of the Atlantic Ocean plays in a League based in the Pacific Ocean.

Seadragon76 Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 The Zephyrs pulled the plug on the remaining home games on their schedule, which was a three game set against the Iowa Cubs....and that's my link to the Hurricane As for the Saints, I wouldn't really worry too much. The home opener isn't until mid-September (The 18th to be exact), so that might be enough time to get everything back up and running in New Orleans.

edmfan16 Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 They are relativly small, and are just leaking water. Yeah, but I heard earlier that the water was coming into the stadium like a waterfall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac the Knife Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 This kills any talk of a new stadium for the Saints. Guaranteed.As for where they'll play in 2005, they hadn't even given it a thought until the thing ripped that roof covering off. Now they'll be scrambling for a (temporary) home, because it seems illogical that anyone's going to allow the Saints to play in a stadium undergoing that much reconstruction.My guess, and its only a guess, is that the Saints either (1) occupy an outdoor stadium somewhere in Lousiana (Baton Rouge, Tulane Stadium, etc.), or (2) the Rose Bowl in Pasadena. But I'd lay my money on them staying in Louisiana in '05. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
