Conceptually it sounds like an interesting thought but logistically and structurally I’m
Not sure how that would work. An arena that can sit 20,000 is still a big area and I’m
Not sure how something like that would affect larger ships or barges using the river as well as how much an arena over the river would cost.

Both Seatle and San Francisco had large piers that they looked at converting to Arena lots. They got really good traction before going with alternative sites. Those would have been in the ocean in far left municipalities. If they can almost do it, no reason it couldn't pass in NO where tons of structures stick out into the river. Put it right where the Natchez steamboat is, plus they could do sky cars over the river, like back during the World's Fair (just bigger). Just a ton of possibilities..
