PreGame 2011 New Orleans Bowl - Walking To New Orleans

We have had 12 rooms booked at the Marriott on Canal for about 5 weeks now. Tonight I heard a rumor that the team will also be staying at the Marriott! Hopefully that is correct and we got lucky!

I wasn't contacted either today. It states on the RaginCajuns website that those of us that reserved "deposits" will be contacted by the UL ticket office to finalize our purchase. I seriously doubt they are allowing others to purchase tickets ahead of the "deposit holders". I hope there's a way they can let us know where the $42 and $62 seats are before they ask me what I want.

No matter what, the deposit holders have to get first choice of seats (in the order of RCAF and season ticket holders) if the whole "deposit system" is legitimate. UL cannot make RCAF/season ticket holders/deposit buyers believe they are going to be contacted... and then start selling anyway to those that call UL first. I bet figuring out how to get this done is driving the ticket office nuts.

I am confident that Scott Farmer knows what he is doing and will handle everything according to what was laid out a few weeks ago. I have also not yet been contacted, but I am not the least bit worried that I will not get the tickets I am in line for.

I am hoping the same thing. I know MT stayed at the Marriott a couple years ago. Not sure if it was the Marriott on 555 Canal or the JW Marriott across the street.

Oh yeah, this is for a football game...nothing else!

It was. They bowl shirts look very nice also.

They are real closely looking. Come in dark grey, light grey, and red.

I'm too fired up about how fun this is going to be to be worried. I do want the whole process to go well. The key is that all of us, even with a hiccup here and there, keep our eye on the prize... having a great time cheering our Cajuns in the New Orleans Bowl.

The tickets being sold today and for now until all the reserve tickets are assigned will only be for general admission. I talked to one of the guys handling the ticket sales. They will begin calling tomorrow until all pre-sale orders are filled.

That goes to show how much research these "experts" perform.
