Maybe we can get with the NOHA and see if we can't get a special like - half off for anyone that purchases 4 tickets to the bowl game.

Most have rooms blocked but you have to call to get the rate.

Bulldog players will enjoy that trip. On the other hand, the travel expenses may hurt Tech quite a bit financially.

Good Lord, can't we ever quit speculating about LTUR financial collapse. They're going to be fine in paradise Hawaii. Some of their fans may be paying down their credit cards for the next three years.

The first year UL went to the Nee Orleans bowl you could get rates around 80 now they are around 150 mostly because UL helped raise the profile of the game

I hear that because they are on the quarter system and with all this notice, they will save by going by boat. They have commandeered a fleet of shrimp boats out of Larose and should be leaving shortly. We comin!!!!!!

Just told the truth and trying to help a brother out. Besides, they’re with Skippy about where we were with Hud a few years ago. BnB site has details.

The truth will set you free, except you still have to pay for parking.

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

Of course not, but I know 4 other families not including myself that are UL season ticket holders that vacationed in Orlando this year and they are not going to commit that kind of money to another trip this close to Christmas. They would have driven to Mobile and will do so if we win the championship and attend the New Orleans Bowl.

Headed to Orlando in May. Don't think I will make it in time.

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.

You do realize some people go to Orlando yearly or every other year right? It's a family tradition for them. As I stated in another post, I know four other season ticket holders that will not make that trip because they are not going to spend those kinds of funds this close to Christmas.

Flights, who cares? Me, have you flown to Orlando this year? I have, once out of Baton Rouge and the other time out of New Orleans. So, if I or anyone else wanted to try and make the bowl and cut our expenses flying out of Lafayette on Frontier, staying an extra night just to get another flight back to Lafayette is going to cost more money. Flying out of Baton Rouge and New Orleans aren't an option at present cost. As I said, but those of us that are not interested in the Disney thing and just attending the bowl game, there is no way of doing it at a reasonable cost for a family of four or even three.

I hope we win the championship, so more people can enjoy Coach Napiers first bowl with the program.
