You think the superdome could handle 200,000 people? Even if they all did CASH in on their FREE bus ride to the Dome.
I chuckled when that was the best plan the mayor could come up with. New Orleans knew this was possible. You have barges set up. You set up a method of getting those people out and away. No one did. Their plan came down to free bus service to the Dome.
Whether or not it was a good plan, the SuperDome seats over 70,000 people.
Monday night there were less than 5,000 people there.
And nobody was turned away at the door.
