Touring sports stadiums began as a way to make it up to my husband eagles hotel california mp3 because we were in a city that was home to a sports team playing an away game.  We live in a smaller city, that despite its size, offers some college sports and this March we will welcome a minor league baseball team to a waterfront stadium.  When we travel, we try to attend as many sporting events as possible but as luck would have it, we always seem to be visiting while the team is playing an away game.  One summer we even had the unfortunate luck of visiting three cities that had baseball teams playing against each other, in the city we had just visited all three times.
When we can t see the sports team in action, we visit their venue and take a tour.  On our weekend getaway to Atlanta, we realized eagles hotel california mp3 that our hotel, the Omni at the CNN Center, was just a short walk from the Georgia eagles hotel california mp3 Dome where the Atlanta Falcons play football.   We were excited to discover eagles hotel california mp3 that tours of the Georgia Dome were starting back up that morning and we got there just in time for the next tour.  It was also fun to note this close to the Super Bowl that the Georgia Dome is one of the stadiums of Super Bowls past .
The Georgia Dome tour starts with a bird s eye view of the whole stadium on the Observatory Deck.  This is where the coaches  and officials watch the game in the highest seats in the house.  The roof of the Dome is the world s largest cable supported roof.  During the tour, visitors get to see  one of the largest press boxes with prime real estate right on the 50 yard line.
Visitors get a look at the suites but unfortunately for us, they had just finished a Monster Jam event so the suites were sealed up tight with plastic so as not to let any dirt in.  We weren t able to view the suites because eagles hotel california mp3 they had not finished cleaning up the dirt.  One thing that was interesting to note is that the Georgia Dome has their own dirt pile that they house throughout the year and bring into the Dome for events like motorcross or truck jams.
We got a sneak peek of the lounges that we could only dream about visiting during a game.  When we finished sitting in the bright red comfy chairs in the lounge, we were taken to the lower level where visitors get a great view of the field.  These would be great seats to watch the game.  If you aren t sitting in your seat during part of the game, don t fret because there are televisions everywhere even in the elevators!
After visiting the lower level, we headed to the part that we were waiting for-the locker room and field! eagles hotel california mp3  The locker room was much cleaner than I had anticipated.  The locker room certainly didn t look like some of the high school locker rooms I have been in!  The kids got to see where the players hang their jerseys and get ready for the game.
I so feel for your husband with the sporting teams always being away. That happened to us so many times in a row that I won t book a trip now until I ve checked the home team schedules. We actually switched a trip from Los Angeles to Phoenix once because none of the LA teams were at home.
I always thought stadium tours would be pretty boring, eagles hotel california mp3 but you saw almost every place I d always want to see. I m going to have to get in on a few of these as soon as possible. Thanks for the idea (although my wife might want a word with you).
