SBC Bowl Placement

[CajunT]

I don't like the SBCs decision on this. Let the bowls decide. Mobile makes a lot of sense for us. 3-4 hours away. Itll be a good test to see how our fanbase is, traveling 1-2 hours more than NOLA. I don't see many traveling to Orlando. I hear so much about how bowls are about money, but tickets are money, so financially it makes sense too.

I agree. For me there is no way I'm going to fly to Orlando after making that trip twice already this year. Frontier out of Lafayette is not an option either considering the flights are not daily. I would have bought tickets to the Dollar General in Mobile and driven. The New Orleans Bowl is a no brainer should we win Saturday. In either case, UL would not have a problem selling it's allotment. I don't see UL selling it's allotment for the bowl game in Orlando.

Orlando is a much better destination than Mobile. I’m stoked for Orlando placement if we lose Saturday

No one is arguing that, but I don't see families returning to Orlando a second time this year so close to Christmas.

Then again, not all families have been to Orlando this year.

What would be dope is, if the Cure Bowl could get with Universal, get half off tickets to anyone who buys a ticket to the bowl game, and give the park exclusively to those folks for the afternoon.

CBSSN is an easily accessible channel. In most systems, it's an upper tier channel meaning those who get it pay an upper tier price.

But it's not like the damn thing is out of China or something.

well, well, well. good post, thanks

For you guys that stream, you can get a free week trial of YouTube TV, and they have CBSSN. Totally free.

thanks! hmm a free trial, does espn have anything for free? ill hang up and listen

i am definitely a bigger fan of going somewhere we dont normally go. and more so prefer to have the latest possible game. (so we could maximize the extra practices)
however, with orlando, i could see a small problem when it comes to hotels, as many people already go there at this time of year regardless of sports. i hope im wrong.

p.s. does a bowl eligible team that either declines a bowl or doesnt get picked, still get the practices?

Save time and ask a neckster. Only program I know that experienced both scenarios.

Are you saying every Cajun family has already been to Orlando this year?

Who cares if the direct flights out of Lafayette aren’t daily. It’s a leave Friday at lunch, return Monday morning scenario. That’s a perfect setup for going to the game Saturday then taking a 1 day trip to Disney or Universal.

Zoom pile drives the necksters! LOL

Don't think you can get the numbers for closing the park but the Bowl or SBC should definitely be discussing discount tickets. They will certainly offer some heavy discounts because of the potential group size and the time of year.

I looked at the Cure Bowl website and saw nothing. Which I though was somewhat surprising.
