Guest Regular Guy Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Very Cool! Having been twice, I can say it IS an awesome stadium! I didn't think that the GA Dome needed to be torn down, I thought it was fine UNTIL I went to the new digs. It is so much nicer than the old house.

The event matters more than life?! SMH! If imma gonna die if I go, imma keeping my arse at home! The bridge isn't closed because it, in and of itself, is a terrorist target. It's closed because if used upon entrance, there is no way, logistically, to maintain the proper security perimeter. Entrance to the Super Bowl is not like any old Sunday Falcons game. Security checks, and ticket scanning occur much further away from the stadium than at the normal gates. Officials require anyone remotely close to the stadium to be ticketed, and screened. Using the pedestrian bridge would allow a by-pass of the established security perimeter. The stadium is the target, not the bridge. It will be open leaving the game because all the folks using it to exit the area were screened on the way in. It's the same principle as airport security maintaining a set distance from departure/arrival gates, and why you aren't screened leaving the airport.

You made my point...get the sheep in...23 mm bridge that won’t be used for ingress of the patrons! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are attempting to explain logistics to someone who doesn’t see beyond a certain FOX News agenda. You would get further with talking to your brick wall or family pet.

I never actually used the bridge because my parking area doesn't require it - so I'm not sure if it's logistically sound - but would it have been possible to set up a security check point(s) at the outer entrance to the bridge - allowing the fans to still utilize the bridge to enter but maintaining the security checkpoint distance? May not be logistically possible - just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stray Dog THA GAWD Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Easy: overcharge decades-long loyal football fans to fund a new, overpriced stadium and subsidize dirt cheap soccer tickets to inflate attendance numbers. Then pat yourself on the back when the national media shows up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
