Description:
Home of the Falcons and the annual Peach Bowl. I think it'll host next year's Final Four as well. Sometimes they have concerts here, but the acoustics are terrible compared to Philips Arena. I've been to the last two Peach Bowls here because they both featured Miami. I wasn't too happy with Miami's performance against LSU, it kind of reminded me of the only Falcons game I went to. They were playing San Francisco, and we were a little bit late, so by the time we walked in, it was already 14-0 49ers. Oh well, at least we got to see the Falcons only points, which came from a field goal. I think Frisco wound up beating us 49-3 or something like that, and to rub it in even more, that was when Deion had just gone to the Niners, ouch! The only other Falcons games I've seen were at the old A-FC Stadium. The teams should clue you in to how long ago it was. I saw them play the St. Louis Cardinals and the LA Rams back in the 80s.
The Dome has also hosted a couple of SuperBowls. My dad worked at them as a nacho vendor. He didn't get to see any of the game, but unlike me, he can say that he's actually been to the SuperBowl. He didn't care anyway since the Falcons weren't in it. We also got to keep the left over cheese, so we had these giant jars of yellow stadium nacho cheese for months at our house. I'm surprised that I haven't suffered a heart attack or massive stroke by now.
