As the 13th member of the Atlanta Falcons Ring of Honor, Falcons Owner and Chairman, Arthur M. Blank, has made his mark as a renowned steward of the franchise. After purchasing the team in 2002, results on and off the field elevated, and Blank's unwavering dedication to the franchise, its fans and the city brought stability and a renewed vision to the Falcons that has stood the test of time. Blank has championed using the Falcons and NFL platforms to grow youth football, support America's military and build community.

Recipient of Sports Business Journal's 2024 Lifetime Achievement Award, Blank redefined the fan experience, and in his first season as owner, Falcons attendance at the Georgia Dome rose to nearly 69,000 fans per game, going from 30th in the league to 11th. After playing in the Dome for 25 years, Blank's vision of a world-class venue for Atlanta and home to the Falcons came to life when Mercedes-Benz Stadium (MBS) opened its doors in 2017.

As of 2024, under Blank's leadership, the Falcons have earned eight postseason berths, including trips to the NFC Championship Game in 2004, 2012 and 2016, three NFC South Division crowns and a trip to Super Bowl LI.
