Georgia Dome/Georgia Tech Site Visit Summary

November 2nd,2010 our Sports Administration class visited Georgia Tech and the Georgia Dome. While at Georgia Tech they showed us the gym with all the workout equipment, raquet ball and squash courts. They took us up stairs where they had a large area for basketball courts and three rooms for specific classes. They also had an indoor hockey setup. They had a 39 foot rock climbing wall also in the workout area. In Georgia Tech's facility they had the Olynpic pool and diving area that was used in the 1996 Summer Olympics. Our next trip was to the Georgia Dome. Our tour guide took us up to the the area where offensive and defensive coordinators. He showed us where the press and media sections. He showed us different type of suites and showed us every level for fans to go and see the game. He took us into the locker room which was not as big or nice as I thought it would be. It looked like a traditional locker room. The coolest part of the tour was going on the field which is probably a once in a lifetime kind of deal. There a few potential career paths with both organizations. At Georgia Tech you can help clean the place, teach certain areas and help people that dont know what exactly to do. The Georgia Dome you can work with the Falcons in the media, ticket sales, marketing, field mateinence, stadium mateince. You could also work in customer service.
