Ok. I'll wait to buy my parking pass Thanks in advance

Agriculture Building is located on the corner of Pershing Blvd and Andrew Querbes St. across from the Hirsch Memorial Coliseum.

If you go to your tickets in eventbrite, click on View Event Listing, then click on Read More in the About section you will find the updated bus trip and Pregame Party Details. In that section there is a map showing the location of the Agriculture Building.

It will be interesting if both UL and UH are having pregame parties in the same building!

There are several livestock barns adjacent to the stadium and a big arena where the state fair show takes place are you talking about the barns or the big coliseum? Assuming it's the same as back in the 80's. I mean we all showed our calves at the state fair back in the day? Right?

[CajunVic]

I’m sure some showed pigs, sheep or even maybe a chicken or two . . . maybe we just judged chickens . . .

JP, is there any way we can get updates on how many seats have been sold / busses have been booked? Also, if you have a certain group that you'd like to ride with, can you request to be on a particular bus? If you don't know, no worries. These are just questions I'm getting in conversations with people today.

I know that we were only able to get two busses. Tried for a third but nothing else was available. I don't know off hand how may tickets have been sold but will find out and let you know. If you want to ride with a certain group, I suggest getting to the Alumni Center around 5:45 and put you group together and check in everyone at the same time. That way you won't have to ask people to switch seats.

They have two buses booked and have a third bus if they need it. The reason no plans was made they had to travel to Shreveport to meet with the Independence Bowl to look at facilities for Tailgating and etc. They met with Houston first and the next day they met with UL.

[Tasso]

Are there any Ragin Cajun Fan tailgating in parking lots.

They don't allow traditional tailgating. You have to purchase a spot from the state fair in the white lot next to the Ag center, join the alumni group or mope about in the coca cola corporate fun zone. Yeah. Sterilized fun y'all.

As of 11:00 am, 90 tickets for bus trip was sold. Was told the two busses have a capacity of 96 and as Tasso stated, a third bus is available if needed.
