One more thing, just think what it will look like when the Pride of Acadiana plays the fight song during their pregame routine and you turn around to see 25-30k people in red standing and clapping to it. I might get emotional. HA!

Good burger go to port-o-call On esplanade
Parkway Bakery....mmmmmmm...Roast beef poboy dressed. Hey Boomer, do they still have the old butchers block where they cut the bread....used to have a 6 inch deep, v shaped crease where the knife hit the block from cutting bread loaves. Best bread in New Orleans.
Juan's flying burrito on Magazine is super cheap and tons of food. And $1 PBR if you're so inclined
Ok, so after thinking about this for a while now (the how many people will we bring question) and trying to figure out any way to measure potential UL fans at the bowl game, I think 30,000 is an easy figure for us to achieve. Nothing scientific here, but of all the regulars I know, we have doubled or tripled the number if people we will be going with as opposed to a regular season game. You seriously need to include the number if alumni from Houston to...what, somewhere in Florida? I'd put that at about 5 to 8 thousand that would attend. Between the two groups I'd say we would have 22,000-ish. And I have to imagine that between students, bandwagon types, and on/off fans we could EASILY come up with 10,000 people. So, given that completely unscientific SWAG (scientific wild ___ guess), I predict 32,000.-36,000 Cajun fans at the New Orleans Bowl on December 17, 2011.

The school should call for a red out in the dome. They could buy some air time in the NOLA area asking the alumni to come out and paint the city red!Quote:

It has changed since the days of the flys buzzing around and my boy with the undershirt scratching and applying the MYnez and da gravy----SOOOOO GOOD as ever though!!!
UL's hopes for claiming a share of the Sun Belt Conference football championship were finally and officially squashed with Arkansas State's win Saturday at Middle Tennessee. The league-leading Red Wolves will take the title outright if current ...
If you want the best gumbo have a bowl before you leave Acadiana. I've never liked the red gumbos to be had around here.Quote:

By that I mean the pride move led to years where they couldn't go bowling if they wanted to.
Turbine- check your PMs.
