No one was busier over the New Years weekend than the Georgia Dome. With the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl, the last Falcons game of the season and a one-time opportunity to host the Sugar Bowl, the Dome was home to three football games in four days—a phenomena the stadium has never experienced.

The weekend was a roaring success thanks to the dedicated staff of the Georgia Dome. Every single aspect of the Dome had to be in perfect condition for each event which required cleaning, restocking, changing signage and putting give-away bags on the back of each of the chairs in the arena. From every suite to concession stand to bathroom, every square inch of the stadium had to look like it was only hosting one event that weekend.

Perhaps the most impressive aspect of the change over was the field itself. New logos had to be painted onto the field for each of the events and the hash marks had to be changed from college regulation to pro and then back to college. With the time it takes to clean, dry, paint and dry the field this was quite a feat.

A lasting legacy of the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, Centennial Olympic Park has become a performing-arts venue, community gathering-space and an anchor for downtown development. The Georgia World Congress Center Authority operates the 21-acre Park, as well as the Georgia Dome and Georgia World Congress Center. The three state-owned facilities are one of the largest combined sports, entertainment and convention center facilities in the world.
