PreGame 2011 New Orleans Bowl - Walking To New Orleans

That is awesome that you are coming that far for the game!!! Really impressive. Makes me realize once again just how HUGE this game is for the Cajun Nation! Is this the first game you make this season? You will be very impressed with the way this team responds to the crowd! This is fun!

I just checked the SDSU board and if I read the thread correctly, they have an allotment of 9500 and they aren't even close to selling it. Some think that they'll be lucky to have 2500 SDSU fans there.

Stuck in Oxford until Thursday, head back to Pcola. Work 1/2 day & head to NO around noon. Hope to be checked in Hyatt by 3:30.

It never occured to me that we could come back later and add tickets to our order, sitting even remotely close to "together." Why would anyone imagine that this is possible? Sorry guys, but I see a lot of people talking about adding to their order of tickets, surprised that they can't get tickets together. have you ever been able to do this sort of thing for any other event that wasn't general admission seating?

I certainly didnt expect to be within a couple of rows of each other, but we are not only on different levels, but are on the exact opposite sides of the entire building. If that was the only thing possible, I would have liked to have been told that its an impossible task to try. I was made to believe that they would get us as close as possible. Instead, its as far away as possible. Obviously, there was no effort to accomodate. If its not do-able, then just tell me its not do-able, and I would make other arrangements. And the 2nd group was 2 tickets. I find it hard to believe there arent 2 seats available on the same end of a 72,000 seat arena when 18,000 tickets have been sold.

We picked up an order of 4 tickets ($40) at the Cajundome today. We were very disappointed to be in section 102 of the endzone. May try moving to sideline seats to get a better view of the game.

Are they not selling seats in the 3rd level through UL? I would much rather sit in the middle of the field up high than in the first couple rows of the first level and in the endzone. Who makes the decision on what's best in "best available"? And have they ever been to a football game? The vantage point from the upper deck in the middle is MUCH better than low in an endzone in my (and most people's) opinion.

Good luck finding any empty seats! We are on the way to having the entire bottom two levels sold out.

The first three or four NO Bowl games I attended when I llived in NO area, the entire third tier (Terrace?) was blocked off and dark. Made it look a bit fuller. I guess fuller is a word. Better attended? That's better.

The dome has three levels. Plaza, loge, and terrace. In the Nola Bowl games I have been to the upper level(terrace) is closed. The Lower two levels have more than enough seats.

Ahhh...No problem.

Geax LOUISIANA!!!
