Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank shared his favorite memories about the Georgia Dome, which is scheduled to be imploded Monday.

“It’s going to happen in 12 seconds,” he told me, “but it’s a happy/sad moment.”

Live coverage of Dome implosion starts at 4:30 a.m. Monday on Channel 2 Action News This Morning

Check out Blank's quick memories in the video above. Meanwhile, it's almost lights out for the long-shot Save-the-Dome campaign I wrote about earlier this year.
