What's ridiculous about that is that technically the Sabbath is Saturday.

Can someone explain to me the reasoning of putting a chicken spot in the stadium and closing it on game day? What sort of bait and switch shit is this?

It is observed on Saturday (really sunset on Friday until sunset on Saturday, I believe) traditionally, but really the purpose of it is to abstain from work on the seventh day of the week. If our working week begins on a Monday, it makes sense to be on a Sunday.

They also didn't stay open on Sundays because the owners didn't trust anyone else to run the registers (when it was only one unit)

It could be that they figure with Thursday, Saturday and Monday games they'll still get a game or two. I suspect that the biggest part of their thinking was concerts and other non-NFL game events. Or, they couldn't sell out the stadium food service spots so they gave it away to Chic-Fil-A.

That's not why it was changed though. The change happened because of Jesus dying. Christians basically decided after Jesus died and was resurrected on the first day of the week (Easter Sunday), that they would observe the Sabbath on the day of his Resurrection so the early church started meeting on Sunday. Hence why it was referred to as the Lord's Day ie the day of his resurrection. I believe he also ascended to heaven on a Sunday as well after officially passing on the Holy Spirit.

The stadium will likely have alot of events year round. Falcons only have 9 home games. Seems stupid, but they will still make a boat load of cash charging stadium prices at other shit.

That's some nonsensical made up BS. The Lord's day and the Sabbath day are 2 separate days with 2 separate meanings. As religion goes, you can come across many different reasons why the Sabbath day was moved from Saturday to Sunday but to say Christians, as a whole, decided to move the Sabbath Day from Saturday to Sunday, is wrong in that many around the world still refer to Saturday as the Sabbath day. And with so many denominations of Christianity, it's silly to make such a blanket statement when many of those denominations were founded on the principal that Saturday was the rightful Sabbath day.
Whether you believe it was Constantine who moved it so it was a seamless transition from 1 religion to another cause the Sun worshipers worshiped on Sunday, or you believe the pope changed it way back when, or you believe Sunday is just a Catholic institution based on Catholic principles, the plain and obvious truth is there is no place in the Bible, Old or New Testament, that claims the Sabbath day was on any other day but the 7th day.

I think it had a lot to do with the calendar at the time Rome adopted it.
They controlled the world at the time... but not sure anyone really knows.
Many worship on Saturday for instance.

Didn't read the article, but can you access it from outside the stadium? Kind of like what the Ricketts did with the Starbucks (and a few other places) that are right there in the new complex.

There was the Colossus of Rhodes.
Then there is the Colosseum or Coliseum in Rome.
I'm posting this because I have massive insecurities, and I viewed this as an opportunity to seem superior, due to a minor error, when everyone really knew exactly what NCChiFan meant.
