The Atlanta Falcons likely want to forget Super Bowl LI as soon as possible. But you wouldn’t know that by taking a closer look at their new stadium.
Although the Falcons lost to the New England Patriots, fans might remember Grady Jarrett, the Falcons defensive end who tied a Super Bowl record with three sacks. Well, the Falcons are wearing that accomplishment like a badge of honor, as a bar inside Mercedes-Benz Stadium actually features a wall celebrating the record.
Now, while Atlanta’s front office apparently is cherishing anything it can from the game, the players are a different story.
Some Falcons players refuse to refer to the Super Bowl by name, while one linebacker actually studies the game in almost religious — though sadistic — fashion.
