Site of the SECCG for over 20 years, hosted several SEC tournaments, Peach/Chic-Fil-A Bowls, Final Fours and a Sugar Bowl.

She's been a good one.

Next year's Peach Bowl will be a playoff semifinal as well, probably the last big game the Dome hosts.

Absolutely nothing, it's not old, and is plenty big/nice, but these days stadiums need to be palaces like Jerry World.

If your stadium isn't worth a billion dollars it's considered "crap"

Yeah. As much as I'm looking forward to the oculus, that's for selfish reasons. The Falcons/Atlanta are really throwing out a fine stadium so they can buy the new Ferrari.

When they finish the GD they will start on a new Nick Saban Stadium. Should be good to go in 2021.

Go see a HS state championship this December. About $15 and they play like 3-4 games a day so you can watch as much football as you want. Probably the cheapest event you can see in the Dome.

I've been to:

1 Falcons game.
5 SEC Championship games
and 4 Chick Fil A Kickoff games

so 10 times, all football games.

Hopefully will get to go to another SEC title game and a Peach Bowl this year.
