Good thing we're getting out of this dump in a couple years, right? :D

Entergy now blaming the Dome........... lol
Ex-Tulane staffer Philip Allison blaming the Dome.............

Power service to the Superdome has never been interrupted, meaning the blackout affecting the 2013 Super Bowl is on the Dome's end, according to Entergy New Orleans spokesman Philip Allison.

Both the Dome and Entergy share the blame. Interesting read on last minute plans for a power upgrade in Dec 2012.

That read more like a thread title here than the TP.

The rot from the 'hard news' division creeps over to the sports side:

CBS drops the ball in Superdome blackout coverage by failing to press the NFL for answers
Not once during the 34-minute delay did a representative of the National Football League appear on camera to attempt to explain what caused half the Superdome to lose power. Why should they? No one from CBS put any pressure on them.

I can't remember that one. I'll have to check the old media guides.

Pretty sure it was the early 80s. Maybe '83.
