That crossed my mind, while it is smaller than both the Georgia dome and Super dome it only holds two thousand less than the Georgia Dome.

I didn't read the thread title, I was thinking this was in regards to the SEC championship. No the sugar bowl should not be moved. The SEC championship should be moved to Nashville.

Or the Big twelve. It moves between KC and Dallas I believe there may be a third city.

What will be interesting to see, is if Atlanta goes through with building another venue where the Falcons will play. There is a huge piece of land (old GM plant) on the North side of Atlanta near I-285 and I-85 that is being discussed as a replacement for the Georgia Dome in the not-too-distant future. I'd be curious about how that will effect the SECC...meaning whether it is a dome, seating capacity, etc.

if your idea of an afterparty is getting mugged off bourbon st., NO is your city

If you're stupid enough to venture off Bourbon St. into the darkness past where there is a crowd, you deserve to be mugged. Have been in New Orleans countless times...anywhere from after football games in the Dome, New Year's, and Mardi Gras. Have NEVER felt threatened because I have sense enough not to wander off the beaten path. This is pretty much the case with any major U.S. though, not just NOLA. Lots of psychos in the world and NOLA surely has its share but no more than anywhere else. The high crime rate attributed to the city is confined to certain areas and not the French Quarter, Garden District, Uptown, or Downtown. You can come up with all the statistics you want but take it from someone who has been there, done that multiple times. I'm sure, since this is an LSU board, there are plenty of Tiger fans who will back me up on this.

If you have been to both places, you can't beat going to the dome and then being right there in the middle of new orleans. The whole experience is definitely better than Atlanta even though Atlanta is a great city. I lived in Nashville for a year and that would be a very fun place to have it, but I don't think the after party would be that fun because it would be too packed. New Orleans and the location of the dome in the city is unbeatable for an event like that. Haven't been to the Georgia dome in a few years but I can say that the superdome is plenty nice.

It was in San Antonio and St. Louis in the 90s

Partying in NO for the games is >>>>>>> than Atlanta.

Actually the best places are off of bourbon.

New Orleans and the Superdome IS the sugar bowl.
