New Orleans cops use bomb-sniffing dogs to secure Superdome for Notre Dame-Georgia Sugar Bowl after terror attack | 2 Jan 2024 | Sugar Bowl officials and local authorities are cautiously proceeding with the rescheduled college football game in the aftermath of Wednesday's terror attack that killed 14 and left more than 30 injured in the French Quarter. Teams of bomb-sniffing dogs and their handlers are out in force around the Superdome, where hundreds more police officers are now expected ahead of Thursday's matchup between seventh-seeded Notre Dame and second-seeded Georgia. Dogs were seen sniffing vehicles entering the Superdome garage, as well as the personal belongings of anyone entering the stadium through the rigorous security checks. The Superdome was on lockdown for security sweeps on Wednesday morning, but the doors were still scheduled to open at 1pm local time, with pre-game festivities beginning at 2:15 CST.
