New Orleans Has Witnessed A Whole Lot Of Super Bowls

Sunday night, the San Francisco 49ers take on the Baltimore Ravens in Super Bowl XLVII, at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans.

New Orleans and the Superdome are no strangers to hosting the world's biggest single-day sporting event, as this will be the city's tenth overall Super Bowl and the famous dome's seventh. No American football venue has hosted more Super Sunday's than the Superdome.

The Big Easy's first three Super Bowls were held at old Tulane stadium, before the Superdome opened for play in 1975.

New Orleans' 10 total Super Bowls ties them with the city of Miami for hosting the most “Big Games” of any American municipality. Los Angeles comes in third with seven games played. The LA area has not had an NFL team since 1994, while not playing host to a Super Bowl game since 1993.
