@@ordocraftrblx6037 actually they got a new stadium because there wasn’t enough space to hold super bowl 53 if they didn’t have to host it so soon then they could’ve used the stadium another 4 to 5 years
The only reason they had is to host another super bowl. Yeah that is a great reason. They couldn;t have waited longer? It's not like Atlanta never hosted one.
Davis Winn read my comment I posted on the video of new stadium my sediment exactly!! I'm born and raised in the great city of Buffalo NY and our beloved Bills have played at rich stadium since 1973 we keep it modern and updated and still near the top im the NFL in capacity keeping taxpayers money in the wallet
Deion's house. LOL..... Hard to believe the Falcons won't be playing at the Georgia Dome anymore, even though I have to admit, their new stadium looks nice.
I still wish the Georgia Dome would have sold to some school, so that it can still be in use, instead of being demolished. :( Actually I'm very angry about this.
Georgia Dome was a great building, and Atlanta decided to replace it. That decision was a good one and it was pre planned and done right. The failed implosion in Detroit is a perfect example of how that whole process has gone up there.
The Georgia Dom’s was an oversized circus tent it was a really horrible stadium, I’m glad it’s gone, now we gotta get rid of MetLife Stadium which is honestly the worst stadium ever built
From wikipedia: Costs and funding[edit] In December 2014, the Georgia World Congress Center's board of governors approved a resolution to raise the cost of the stadium to $1.2 billion. The stadium was initially slated to cost $1 billion, then rose to $1.2 billion in October 2013.[54] The city has agreed to contribute $200 million in stadium bonds, but with additional tax revenues[55] and with the state of Georgia contributing $40 million for parking expansion, public spending is expected to reach near $600 million.[56] In January 2015, the Falcons announced the sale of personal seat licenses (PSL) costing up to $45,000 per seat, depending on the section of the stadium. The most expensive tickets is priced at $385 per game, in addition to one-time PSL fees, for the first three years.[57] On August 21, 2015, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported that Mercedes-Benz would acquire the naming rights for the stadium, and this was later confirmed by a press conference at the stadium site on August 24. Under the stadium deal with the city of Atlanta and the Georgia World Congress Center Authority, the Falcons organization controls the stadium's naming rights and receives all related revenue. Then-Mercedes-Benz USA CEO Steve Cannon, who would subsequently join the Falcons' organization in 2016 as CEO of AMB Group,[58] stated that the sponsorship would last 27 years, calling it the largest marketing deal in Mercedes-Benz' history, but Cannon would not disclose the full value of the deal. Mercedes-Benz also holds a 10-year naming rights contract for the former Louisiana Superdome signed in 2011.[59]
We will miss you you so much we love rip 1992-2017 Thanks For 16 likes ☺️
McKelvey Woodson thx for the memories dome 🤧
Sohail Tube No Prob Man
Mas era feia e ao sei como os falcons tinham coragem de jogar aí
Thanks for 16 like 😒
You ruined a good comment man.
What a waste could have lasted at least another 5 more years. They keep replacing not so old stadiums the RCA Dome is another example.
Especially since the new one looks like a giant Chinese take-out box. It's hideous. Glad I'm not a Falcons fan.
The Falcons’ lease at the stadium just expired, so they had to take down this giant to make way for the new Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

The RCA Dome became obsolete and an eyesore. The Georgia Dome, on the other hand, was renovated and had much life to it
@@jerrodmays83 so because it wasn't pretty to look at we got to spend millions of taxpayers dollars to build a new one?
Mark my words. Give it 20 years. No maybe 15. "We need a new stadium or we may have to move as the Mercedes Benz Stadium is soooo outdated"
Robert Bruce Exactly.
No it’ll be till 2050
The Braves got a brand new stadium that they didn't need, the falcons just got a brand new stadium that they don't need. Atlanta, #1 at wasting money
Davis Winn. The Braves didn't need a stadium. The Falcons did.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE give me reasons why the Falcons NEEDED a billion dollar stadium.
Davis Winn doesn't matter the owner paid over a billion dollars of his own money for it so why you care?
The only reason they had is to host another super bowl. Yeah that is a great reason. They couldn;t have waited longer? It's not like Atlanta never hosted one.

Georgia dome the atlanta falcons old home RIP 1992-2017
Deion's house. LOL..... Hard to believe the Falcons won't be playing at the Georgia Dome anymore, even though I have to admit, their new stadium looks nice.
That’s exactly what everyone said when the Falcons left Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium In 1992.
Been to every falcons game since I was like two. This dome is a part if my childhood R.I.P.
Nothing wrong with it. Why waste money for a new one. Just renovate the dome. Rip wasted years. So many more years couldve came...
I still wish the Georgia Dome would have sold to some school, so that it can still be in use, instead of being demolished. :( Actually I'm very angry about this.
Me to. It was also a big stop for monster jam each year. It was one of my favorite stadiums too.
+MonsterMashup hey but they got a new stadium still in Atlanta so monster jam will be preforming there
angel lopez, your right. But it was an historic venue for Monster Jam. One of the last ones too. It's just sad to see it in this faze. You know?
In fact, I know exactly who they should have sold it to: Georgia Tech, it would serve as a cold weather facility.
pwcorgi2000 I know they should have just kept for more time instead of doing that new one. I grew up in Atlanta GA dome 1992-2017 :(
MEMORIES OF 2015 MONSTER JAM AND THE CHICK FIL A DROPS AND THE TORNADO rest un peace ga dome
If the dome was still here now it would be 26 years. R.I.P ga dome. We will miss you old girl. 1992-2017
Monster jam Productions I think it had at least ten more years left in it.
FAREWELL GEORGIA DOME
FAREWELL GEORGIA DOME
Goodbye old girl.😭😭😭😭
Rest in peace 🕊️🕊️🕊️ Georgia dome and rise up ATL
Just imagine there were SEC Champion s in there.
This almost brought tears to me eyes

Looked fine to me

Looks like it's time to kiss the Georgia Dome goodbye.
If the Braves played at the Georgia dome
Gonna miss the old stadium went to a lot of games there and some playoff games rip.
My favorite memorie in this stadium is the Titans coming one yard short. Man it's so sad it's gone 🤧🤧
The Georgia Dom’s was an oversized circus tent it was a really horrible stadium, I’m glad it’s gone, now we gotta get rid of MetLife Stadium which is honestly the worst stadium ever built
What a waste, the stadium wasn't even 30 years old and was a good facility.
Atlanta doesn’t waste money the Dome-was like 94 years old. So they built another one because it was to old
SAmi Khalaf it was 24 years old dumbo
They should have renovated it and given it to either the Atlanta hawks or Georgia tech football team
TamGotBandz 1 then that means the Hawks would give up Phillips arena
TamGotBandz 1 that would be a big stadium
Never forget the Primerica conventions there. Very exciting.
So much history happened in the Dome. Its sad to see it destroyed

Guns N' Roses July 27, 2016. Anybody go, how was the show?
The last supercross on that dome
I remember watching the Panthers destroy the Falcons in 2015.
Georgia dome is history now
This stadium only lasted 25 years? Where does Atlanta get the money to build a new one?
J peach, youre kidding right? more than half was tax payer money. probably way way more....
The Amway Arena in Orlando was younger than the Georgia Dome when it was imploded: 23 years old.
The Kingdome in Seattle only lasted 25 years
one staduim iv always wanted to see a game at an never will just sad
Wrestlemania 27 will be a distance memory !
RIP Georgia Dome
It better than Oakland stadium
You shouldve kept the georgia doem for the D-1a playoffs or some D-2 Playoff games or something like that, they are letting a great venue go to waste
Ikr they could have renovated it and given it to the Atlanta Hawks,hell they could have given it to Georgia Tech University
i agree
Dude Phillips arena is only 18 years old?
Same with west valley they are also #2 in wasting money
Never went there but I still miss it
Bye-bye Georgia Dome, hello Mercedes-Benz Stadium!
The memories of Wrestlemania 27.
Lmafo
If it was built in 1992, why tear it down? Keep it up and throw the Georgia football team in there.
AndyMickeyD56 Gaming no it was started in 1989 and finished in 1992
AndyMickeyD56 Gaming The falcons could have stayed their for at least ten more years.
I was at the final game...
Fisher Isbell oh u a bama fan I was sad about that game cuz u beat my huskies in it
Ben Anafi no the NFC Championship

Wow didn’t know they started destroying it
Bye Bye Georgia Dome! ✌️✌️
i saw this from my house window
Georgia dome looks so small compared to the Mercedes Benz stadium
Replaced by the mercades benz stadium
I hope they removed the Super Bowl banners from that before they demolished it. Oh, wait...
WUDDYA MEAN OH WAIT O_O
especially since the dome came down
Now where do the Falcons play , now this is gone ? Why was this torn so soon ? It s like rather new !!!

If it was going to be a park then why demolish it?
What a waste of money.
How come they did all that removal for a implosion? I wouldent
R.I.P
They throw all of that trash in the ocean next
Didn't they have to tear it down because a tornado damaged it in 2010?
No in 2008
