DESCRIPTION
Some would call it the capital of the “Who Dat Nation.” Downtown’s Sports & Entertainment District is home to three national sports teams— the New Orleans Saints, Hornets and VooDoo. The magic combination of champion sports teams and their die-hard fans has turned this area into a sports mecca (Fox Sports names it the #2 city for NFL fans.) The New Orleans Superdome, New Orleans Arena and Champions Square attract 2.5 million visitors a year through an array of sporting and cultural events.
