Those NHL embedded videos never work in my browser.

Anyone know if the Dome is expected to be ready for the Eagles concert on Sept 11th?

They said the Dome would be ready for Sept. 1st, so unless they have a setback I would think the concert would go ahead.

So here is one of those "wow, small world" moments: A gal I am Facebook friends with is actually driving the semi that is bringing a load a seats from Laredo, Texas to the dome this week. Just thought I could help answer the question regarding clean vs. replace the seats.

Take it for what it is.

I work for one of the main contractors working on the clean-up at the dome. It's now good to go. Building inspectors will be providing an occupancy certificate sometime this afternoon.

Mods if you need more confirmation, please PM me.

City was there today looking over things. I only worked a half day because we were done with our section of things.

The Saints won the Superbowl 4 years after Katrina.

Flames win it all in 2017.

It's going to be a long rebuild. Best not to look directly at the suckage.

I believe it's the new "cloud glass" that every team is adopting.

All jokes aside, I'd love it if they kept the boards white like that. Ad free!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Ken King say that the glass still had the protective wrapping on it?
