Where to park

I've never been to an event at the Superdome before. Does anyone have any suggestions of affordable, relatively safe, places to park around the Superdome.

Re: Where to park

You can park under the dome for like 30.00.

Yes, but upon further review (a 5 minute process) "the call on the field stands!"

Does anyone know if I could buy prints of the illustration on the cover?

Re: Where to park

There is tons of parking around the dome. I would be shocked if the surface lots on Loyola Ave are more than $10. This is not saints pricing.

Might want to try John Dugas. Scott probably has a pretty full plate

Is the team traveling through BR? And why I want to know, and what I was trying to organize.
Was my idea ok with him?

We'll see what he says.

Which is why The Swamp is lower than the playing field at the Super Dome. . . . . not that you asked :)

Re: Bowl Ticket Order Form?

My issue with this process is that by now they should be done with groups 1-3 and allow general public to walk up.

I mean we are less than a week from kickoff now!!! This may be why we are only at 17K tickets. We should be in general public ticket push mode right now!!!

Re: Who is calling the New Orleans Bowl for ESPN?

Rogers Redding, national coordinator of NCAA football officials, assigns crews from each conference to each bowl game. No conference crew works a game in which one of its conference teams is playing. Each conference gets the number of bowl games depending on the number of its teams who play in bowl games. Crew was assigned couple of weeks ago. Will be announced on Friday

Re: Send Off The Team. Tuesday

Scott just emailed me back they are traveling through BR!

Now, who wants to join SMD7636 and I in cheering the team on as they travel through town? Any ideas where to do this? I have one good one, but want to see if anyone else has any first.

Hey Sue, it looks like a photo of you and Stu in the advertiser's special section. I think it said it was from one of the road games, OSU maybe.

That sucks, I didn't get pretty looking tickets like that. Mine just look like ticketmaster tickets. I got mine through the box office too.

Re: Who is calling the New Orleans Bowl for ESPN?

Ya'll are really worried about who is calling the game? Jeeze, all I'm worried about is who the sideline reporter will be. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a miracle that Jenn Brown would be there.

So would I be able to walk up to the window and buy my tickets, like say before the the basketball game tomorrow? I know I'm late but I just found out that my wife is off and will be able to attend the festivities. I tried checking the Ticket master and stub hub sites but all the seats seem to be on the @s$ tics side.....

I'm thinking we do this in the Best Buy parking lot. Good place to get a good view (from a vehicle) of something on the side of the road. Plus, we would be safe in the parking lot.

I've heard back from only one person so far and they are not able to come... :(

I would hope we could get 10-15 people out there...

These are TOTALLY behind the SDSU bench! I guess we got some of their tickets back and are already selling those too. Looks like the ENTIRE 100, 200, 300 will be UL fans except maybe one section for SDSU?!?!?!?
