Saints Delinquent on Superdome Renovation Payments, Officials Report
The New Orleans Saints are behind on $11.5 million in payments for the ongoing $500 million renovation of the Caesars Superdome, potentially threatening the project's timeline as the city prepares to host the Super Bowl next year. The Saints claim they are waiting for documentation from the Superdome Commission before making payments, while the commission warns that delays could alter the project's scope. The renovation is crucial for a new long-term lease to keep the Saints in Louisiana and for hosting Super Bowl LIX in 2025.
