Opening its doors in 1975, the Louisiana Superdome has become more than just the home of the New Orleans Saints and the yearly site of the Sugar Bowl.

For the last 50 years the Superdome, the most recognizable stadium for sure in the western hemisphere, has been the location of some of the most memorable games and sports moments over the last half century.

This week, the now Caesar's Superdome will be hosting the Super Bowl for a record 8th time, adding to its reputation as America’s premiere locale for big games and championship matches.

This is Part one of three episodes examining the illustrious history of the Louisiana Superdome, the site of many exciting memorable sports moments over the last 50 years.

Joining us in this episode is a pair of colleagues here on

the Sports history network.

The host of the Football is Family podcast, Jeremy McFarlin

and the co host of the Hello Old Sports podcast Dan Neumann as they will talk

about the best moments of Super Bowls in the Super dome as well as share their

memories of a building that has hosted more than its share of big games in

North American Sports.

Later in the Show, we will send a shout out to the Stadium

that the Superdome replaced in the mid 1970s.

A stadium known in the Big Easy as the "Old lady of Willow Street", Tulane stadium.

A stadium that was the site of three super bowls in its own right as well as the long time home of the Sugar Bowl, the original home of the Saints and was also the site of one two of the greatest moments in Saints history.

Heading into the 1994 season, the San Diego Chargers were coming off of an 8-8 season under second year head coach Bobby Ross.

There was little to be expected from the team from southern California. After all, the Chargers did lose their top running back and receiver from the season before on offense and their best defensive back to retirement.

Yet with a stunning rally against the rival Denver Broncos in the opening game of the regular season, the San Diego Chargers began the season 6-0 and eventually winning and AFC West title after sweeping the season series against the Kansas City Chiefs led by the great Joe Montana who experts predicted were going the win the division in 1994

In this episode of the podcast, we will go back 30 Years to not only celebrate one of the best seasons in Chargers' history, but one of the most unexpected postseason runs in NFL history.

Later in the show, host Dana Auguster would explain his fandom of then San Diego Chargers despite the fact of growing up in south Louisiana.
