sscrunner06 Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 After hearing the news that the Superdome will most likely be destroyed, I started thinking about my fond memories of the Dome. I have been to many Saints games, but I think my favorite game was Brett Favre and the Green Bay Packers knock off the Patriots in Super Bowl XXXI. Also, I remember watching my beloved Gators destroy the 'Noles 52-20 in the 1996 Sugar Bowl to claim their first ever national championship. What are some of ya'lls favorite Dome memories?

Ez Street Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 --Carmelo Anthony leading the Orange over Kansas to give Jimmy Boeheim his first title in '03. This would be my favourite memory... the orangemen finally pulling through. Shut up.Feaking Nick Collison not being able to hit a free throw. Vintiari hitting that field goal was so freaking awesome.
