If you really want to see what is wrong with the location of the Georgia Dome, take a look at the overhead on Google Maps and compare it to some of the top stadiums around the league.

Georgia Dome

Arrowhead Stadium

Gillette Stadium

Lincoln Financial Field

Lucas Oil Stadium

Raymond James Stadium

Heinz Field

Soldier Field

Qwest Field

Cowboy Stadium

Lambeau Field

What do all those others have in common? Lots of places to park and Tailgate. Even Soldier field, which is fairly close to downtown Chicago, has a ton of parking and a parking deck. What does the area around the Georgia Dome have? $10-20 parking lots on game day that are half a mile away and the CNN Center parking garage.
