PreGame 2011 New Orleans Bowl - Walking To New Orleans

[RaisingCajun08]

I was wondering, will there be a "student section" at the NOLA Bowl or should I just buy my tickets anywhere? My guess would be no but I wanted to make sure. Sorry if this is a stupid question, I've never been to a bowl game before

UL will have reserved seating for their fans that buy tickets through the University. No "student section" for the bowl game.

What's the reason for accepting deposits on the tickets ahead of time? Are they expecting to sell out our allotment?

I would imagine it has to do with having an extra month to be able to sell seats.

i would ask the ticket office when you buy your tickets, there may be a section that they will try to put the students in

maybe at some point the folks down in NOLA might get wind that we have 18k presold tickets, might help make the decision even easier

Possible reason; Looks good to the Bowl committee if we have presold 20K or so tickets?

[Cajun90]

And, they had to do it that way because nothing is official.

But if any of you don't know where we're going, you haven't been paying attention.

We are heading West right?? Said in my best Boomer voice!

You guys really aren't paying attention. We're going to the New Orleans bowl. There's no might or maybe about it. We're going. And we've been knowing this for 2 weeks. They just can't make it "official" until the season ends. UL wouldn't move back graduation and start selling tickets if they weren't 110% sure.

That makes sense and is a very good marketing tool! I wonder / expect we will have some NOLABowl rep(s) at the game this weekend!

Got mine.
