Honoring a Transformative Owner

Arthur Blank's impact on the Atlanta Falcons organization extends far beyond the field. Since acquiring the team in 2002, the Falcons have experienced a remarkable transformation, with eight playoff appearances, two NFC Championship games, and a Super Bowl appearance in 2017.

Blank's unwavering dedication to the Falcons and the city of Atlanta has earned him the respect and admiration of the entire community. As Team President Greg Beadles noted, "Since Arthur purchased the team in 2002, results on and off the field have elevated. And his unwavering dedication to the fans and city of Atlanta is worthy of this recognition and so much more."

The Atlanta Falcons Ring of Honor serves as a prestigious accolade, celebrating the legendary players and executives who have made a lasting impact on the organization. Blank's induction into this elite group is a testament to his visionary leadership and his commitment to elevating the Falcons' brand and the fan experience.

A Dual Induction Ceremony

The upcoming game against the Kansas City Chiefs will mark a historic moment for the Falcons, as Blank will be joined by former quarterback Matt Ryan as the 13th and 14th members inducted into the Ring of Honor.

This dual induction ceremony is a rare occurrence, as the last time the Falcons welcomed two new members into the Ring of Honor was in 2008. The inclusion of both Blank and Ryan underscores the significant contributions they have made to the Falcons' legacy and the lasting impact they have had on the franchise and its devoted fan base.

As the Falcons take the field against the Chiefs on September 22nd, the atmosphere at Mercedes-Benz Stadium is sure to be electric, with fans eagerly anticipating the celebration of Arthur Blank's induction and the opportunity to enjoy the complimentary concessions and commemorative cups.
