Funny thing now is that the GA Dome in the background days are now also numbered.

The Jacksons did their "Triumph Tour" Atlanta gig in that coliseum. So did Michael on his "Bad Tour" on his USA leg.. Man these stadiums are masterpiece..

I had a lot of great memories in that building from Flames hockey games as a kid, concerts as a teenager to a employee after high school.

Been to some of the biggest wrestling events during my growing up years in Atlanta in the 70s and 80s. The circus, and events featuring the World of Sid and Marty Krofft.Definitely remember those days.

I have a pair of seats from the Atlanta Omni. I won them in a contest from the AJC when the Omni was destroyed. I don't know how many they sold if any but I think they gave 200 away in contests. I was hoping to use in a game room but now I am thinking about selling at auction.

They really should have left the Omni Coliseum alone. To me, the in side Philips Arena looks small. I went to see Tina Turner, back in 2008 and I thought in my mind, while I was in the Philips Arena, "This auditorium is really small compared to the Omni".

The reason why it was torn down was because the roof began to form holes in it. From rust caused by humidity. Plus people were climbing in those holes to break in.

Plus it was the only way Atlanta would get another NHL team. However they eventually left to Winnipeg.

Also apparently the arena became obsolete a few years after it was built because it didn’t have the adequate luxury boxes to sell to corporations. That was one reason why the Atlanta Flames left in 1980.

Marco Macias Yep. I'm not saying you do, but most people still believe that the plunger is what actually detonates the charges. It's nothing more than ceremonious pomp and circumstance. Can't say I blame these demolition companies, I wouldn't want anyone else in control.
