i get what your saying but they are in the business of selling fan apparel, do they really have a choice? its not like a resteraunt flying a flag or catering to certain fans. They make their living off of selling those items. Not sure I would translate that into support.

People open businesses to make money, therefore they stock merchandise that sells. For many years UL did not produce many items that people wanted to buy. That has improved quite a bit in recent years, but still not to the degree of items produced by LSU. I have purchased a number of UL items from both Bell's and Louisiana Hot Stuff and I've enjoyed everything purchased from either store. I don't think Cajun fans ought to discount any outlet or store selling any amount of Cajun items. It is up to us as fans to create the market for Cajun merchandise and if we do, I'm sure all stores will add to their inventory.

Just like the BCS, it's all about the money!

Spoke to friend who called to get his tickets today. He bought them outright (no deposit) and was told that the $62 seats are sold out.

OK, Was just checking. i'm not sure they are really sure how they are doing it since this is all new to them and the first time through it. but, she told me that the deposited people went first in the order described. then the people that ordered once it became first come fisrt serve would be seated in the order listed as well.

so was wondering if since we deposited early it gave precedence over the ones who chose not to?

This is new to the old timers at UL, but this is not new to Scott Farmer. Therefore, Scott has a good handle on it and is coaching his staff on how all this works!

thanks Duggie, so i guess i'll just wait till they call and maybe get to select seats. i thought it sounded odd that you wouldn't be able to select seats??

Looks like our dreams of the N.O. Bowl have been crushed! Apparently we aren't going to any bowl game

Yea, you can always go to Parkway if you want the second best po-boys in New Orleans. Or you can go to Domilise's on Annunciation For the best po-boys. Tell Nu-Nu and Josh that Tony sent you.

--------Although an old family friend---their prices have gone out of sight---Adams grocery has according to my S-in-L as good for a lot less money---Last time I went I thought I was at a Redemptorist reunion!!!!

Vincent's on St. Charles has the best italian in the country. Trust me, I even spent 2 weeks in New York trying to find something as good.

I agree 100%. Get the Lasagna and you'll be thanking Kal and I later.

Anybody hear anything about UCF? I had heard that they were a possibility but haven't heard much about them in a while

UCF lost last week to fall to 4-7 so they are no longer an option for the NO bowl.

billbeck,

how did it end up being $89 dollars. thought it was 30 per ticket. how many did you get??

[CajunDreDog]

I saw that last night and forgot to post it!!!

This just proves exactly how much ESPN does not follow the SBC any way shape or form!

Espn only has a TV contact with the SBC to say they have one with all the top div I conferences.
