Gulf Brew all over again

[RedTails]

I think the email that went out from ACA said there would be a free shuttle to Cajun Field to bring fans to the game

You're right, that is awesome.

"Double your fun - take advantage of University of Louisiana's Homecoming Game - also on October 21!! There will be a continuous, complimentary shuttle running between Cajun Field & Downtown Lafayette from 12:30 - 5:30pm. Geaux Cajuns!"

I'm going to park at CF, take shuttle DT, then back for the game. This is perfect.

And don't forget the parade

Is it just called Gulf Brew? Not gulf brew festival?

It's called Gulf Brew

Gulf Brew gets what? Maybe a couple thousand people?

Acadiana is 1 million? That festival isn’t preventing us from selling out.

Depends on your definition of Acadiana. I include Lafayette, Acadia, Verm, Iberia, St Martin, St Landry. That’s about 500-600k.

I understand your line of thinking, but we're begging for every single butt in the stadium.

Apparently not, and many RP fans are just fine with losing fans not willing to modernize.

Yes the Lafayette Metro area of Acadia, Lafayette, St Martin, St Landry, St Mary, and Vermilion are right at 600k. The 22 parish Acadiana region is 1.5M and we can’t get 30k average attendance. That has nothing to do with local festivals.

It’s undoing 50 years of poor public relations by the university.

Nailed it.

Just one man here. Gulf Brew has never interfered with my tailgating or football. Heck if the Cajuns had an open date I’m sure I could a better game on TV than Gulf Brew.

Agreed. Couldn't care less about paying $40 to go and drink beer.

____…. $40 is 5 craft draft beers at Cajun Field. I’d prefer that as long as the selection stays strong (hopefully the quality of beer options doesn’t go the way of the cajundome )

. . . doubt that the Gulf Brew moves any real needles . . .
