Report: Atlanta Super Bowl Needs 10,000 Volunteers

Don’t necessarily think  you’ll get inside the Mercedes-Benz Stadium, but if you want to give of yourself and time by volunteering for the city’s Super Bowl in January, they need you.

Atlanta will need at least 10,000 volunteers during Super Bowl LIII for weeklong activities, according to 11Alive. To save time, organizers are keen to start the interviewing process and bring people on board.

Helpers will be needed to shepherd people around the game festivities, including staffing along downtown streets and venues, the airport and other places. City officials are expecting more than  250,000 visitors to flock to to the city, including those with no intentions of attending the game.

Volunteer coordinator Cordell Smith told 11Alive that people will want to volunteer just to be around the Super Bowl.

“I think the biggest incentive is just being a part of the Super Bowl. For cities that usually get Super Bowls, people are used to that. Up here, we don’t always get that opportunity. We may never get that opportunity again,” he was quoted as saying.
