Well if it wasn't his point then he shouldn't have brought it up. It was his words not mine. He even said he spent a fortune but didn't go. It was cold but no reason to waste money IMO. The comforts of the Super Dome wasn't mentioned one time in the post I responded to.
I do not disagree with him, I have said many times if we are not in a NY 6 bowl there is no better destination than NOLA.
Sec 141

It’s going to be a great time in Nola. Can’t wait!
My 2 tickets are in section 142 right behind Cajun bench. I had a glitch putting them in wallet and might have tried to do it twice. I hate an empty wallet but have great seats
Near zero excitement about the program as a whole. Unmatched success since Hudspeth arrived and the excitement levels have continued to dwindle instead of increase.
Which wasn’t Napier or Desormeaux’s fault. The administration went to far with trying to maximize revenue. To be fair, I was 100% on board with that, at the time we needed to bring in more money and we still do to this day. Unfortunately we have gone a little too far with that.
IMHO creating an exciting atmosphere 7 times a year and making slightly less revenue brings more value to the program than charging premium prices. The product on the field is only part of making the game day experience worth coming back to for casual fans.
Add in Inflation and families just can't afford nor see the value in an mehhh experience.
I know the university does not set the price of the bowl tickets, but those prices for a family of 4 or 5 were just too high just like the bus ride with no ticket.
I remember for the Lending Tree Bowl in Mobile, we brought like 3 busses loaded with Cajun fans. I promise you the prices were not that high and that was before this bad inflation.
I will be there as usual, hoping some of our alumni, fans, NOLA people decide to support the home team. As I said previously, day of game tickets will be cheap.
