PreGame 2011 New Orleans Bowl - Walking To New Orleans

[RaginDave]

I wonder if I paid the frieght if they would ship a couple to me in NC?

UL won... that's what they did. And they did it with a raging crowd that will also be back here to see you play in the NO Bowl someday. Oh, and if you need free tickets to the NO Bowl... how much are you saving up to go to San Diego to see your son play, mom? Are you going to purchase the full suite of college football access so that you can watch SDSU play? How about you just take a Saturday drive to Lafayette with the rest of the family and watch your son play? And then... how cool is it when UL comes back to the NO Bowl, again, and all of your friends and family get to watch him play? Now... back to your son coming to UL to play football.

Spoken by someone who obviously doesn't understand jack crap about recruiting. We are not talking about exploiting cancer victims or the victime of a tragic accident here, we are talking about using the power of an institution to have a general positive impact on a community & let your name be recognized with the degree of separation necessary to ensure that no NCAA rules are broken. Giving something to a sector of potential future fans in the heart of Tulane, LSU, & USM country without personal contact with any individual from the school is a stroke of genius.

I also give SDSU credit for a great idea. Promote community involvement & get recognition for your school at the same time. Be honest, if this post or series of posts were being made by just about anyone else on this forum you guys would be lapping this up. I have come to understand & accept your small mindedness though.

Dave,

If they don't send me a PM I can pick up what you need and ship them to you.

If you sit on the aisle you'll have to buy the beer. Same row as you, seats 6-10.

Hey I'll buy my own beer but Ronnie is gonna have to go get them

If you don't mind a little ride, I've always like the Camelia Grill, but it's been since before the hurricane that I was there. This is a website under construction.

Camellia Grill has a location in the Quarter on Chartres now. The girlfriend and I went for breakfast during a trip a few months ago. I didn't notice a difference in taste between that one and the original.

Two things that worked against this team.
1. Blowout losses to Indiana State (FCS) and a horrible Navy team.
2. Scheduling money games versus Kentucky (who they should have beaten) and LSU.

Yeah, I feel sorry for them. Kinda like they, I'm sure, felt sorry for us when Fenroy, Dez, et al got shut out out of a bowl their senior year. It sucks when that happens.

I know the Nola Bowl is officially hosting a FREE concert for Friday night in Spanish Square (at the end of Poydras overlooking the river). And that concert will be a hell of a lot of fun, Rebirth Brass Band will be opening followed by the GIVERS. The GIVERS are straight out of Lafayette and they are probably one of the funnest live bands you will ever witness, whether you are familiar with their music or not. This is a must attend. Lafayette taking over New Orleans for the weekend!

GEAUX CAJUNS BABY

The Givers aren't playing that concert and there is no band from Lafayette called The Givers. Givers is playing though and they're from Lafayette.
