    If you recall, it was former MidSouth Bank President/Ceo Rusty Cloutier that fronted the money and help negotiate the deal with the New Orleans Downtown Sports Association to get the deal done. It wasn't Scott Farmer's idea and he certainly didn't facilitate that agreement.

    Farmer? In the Superdome?

    When I approached the head of the NO Sports Foundation, he answered positively, and didn't mention that it had already been brought up. Hmmm...

    Either way it’s a bad idea during the season. We draw well to Nola post season when 80 percent of the state isn’t paying attention to what the school in BR is doing. Whoever had the bright idea of the Nola game definitely screwed the pouch on that one.

    Wrong.

    It was a great idea that wasn't promoted.

    I was there. It was promoted. It is just that you had no more interest in that game than those that would typically go to Cajun field and you lost some of them due to the 2 hr drive. You know what happens in NOLA on Labor Day weekend every year?

    Make no mistake the majority of the huge NO Bowl Crowds never step foot in a Cajuns football game during the months of September through November. You were never going to get a crowd to that game like the bowl games.

    You can't wait till the week of the game to promote that game!

    Games like that deserve a summer long promotion.

    The game was not promoted. It's like marketing walked out of evolutionary biology class and expected promotions to take care of itself. ... by accident.
