A grand tour of Atlanta’s new grand stadium

The media got its first look at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Tuesday and were taken on a pleasant tour through the complex and oh man who am I kidding trying to be reserved about this thing OH MY GOD IT’S A FREAKIN’ SPACESHIP. IT’S INCREDIBLE AND IT’S OURS AND I’M NOT EVEN SURE WE’RE WORTHY OF IT.

I mean, LOOKIT.

Look at our massive, circular video board!

Look at our well-lit, English soccer inspired dressing room!

Look at our…umm…giant metal death bird!

Honestly, the whole thing is amazing.

There is still some ways to go with the final pieces of construction and the roof won’t be fully functional until late fall, but the whole complex is still remarkable.
