Well, as long as the state legislature signs off on the agreement between the Saints and the state of Louisiana. The agreement announced on April 30 would keep the Saints in NOLA until 2025, revamp the Superdome, and revamp part of the Central Business District.

Back when Katrina hit, I don’t think too many Saints fans thought we’d ever see this day. Heck, I still have my “Save Our Saints” magnet on my car! But I have to give props to the team and the state for coming together on this one.
The improvements to the dome are going to provide a lot more comfort for the fans, and a lot more revenue potential for the team. The Central Business District will see two vacant buildings buzzing again and it’s going to create a better fan experience. It’ll also help New Orleans lure another Super Bowl and show the world why it’s the #1 place in the world to party.
This just goes to show the resilience of the city and will ensure that the Black & Gold will continue to thrill fans in the Gulf South for a long time to come. Rejoice!
