The Crescent City has landed its first professional championship game post-Katrina.

At a press conference at the New Orleans Arena on Monday, the Arena Football League and the New Orleans VooDoo will announce that ArenaBowl XXI will be held at the Arena on July 29.

AFL Commissioner David Baker is scheduled to fly in this morning, and he will attend the Saints-49ers game today at the Superdome with Saints and VooDoo owner Tom Benson, along with other representatives of the league.
