PreGame 2011 New Orleans Bowl - Walking To New Orleans

[Big Silly]

agree, poor job by the ticket office. they need help.

[Big Silly]

good question. the best seats in the superdome are on the 200 level close to the 50 yard line.

Not only is it our first bowl appearance in 41 years, that is big enough, add to that we will shatter the attendance record for the N.O. Bowl in this game, which currently sits at 30,228 but more importantly:

With a Cajun win this year, for the first time in the history of the N.O. Bowl the SBC will have a winning record, currently the SBC record in the N.O. Bowl sits at 5-5, we could be the first team ever to get the SBC to a winning record in the bowl that was created for us! This is huge.

Geaux Cajuns!!!!!

Shivaun said on the news last night that we probably were not going to get anymore tickets. Which means we maxed out what they were willing to give to us.

I wonder if prior attendance numbers reported were tickets sold, distributed or actual turnstile count? Each one of those numbers could be significantly different.

Hop on 310 right after Hahnville High school. It will put you on i-10 about ten miles west of the NOLA airport.

Not well. I saw a spot on WWL and it had a shot of Cajun cheerleaders for about a second. There also a billboard on I-10. Nothing on the sports casts thus far.

I did hear a 30 second spot on WWL yesterday that included bowl information, ticket packages, info on the concert in Spanish Plaza, and other events.

I can't believe people are actually complaining about any of this. Flawed though it might be, it is still a thing of beauty to me.

As of yesterday, the New Orleans Bowl had not given the green light to opening the upper deck of the Dome. If they don't then the attendance for this year's game could be artificially "sold out" at around 35,000. Apparently there are extra costs associated with opening the upper level (security, ushers, cleaning, etc.) that the Bowl has never had to face.

Well if the same people who do the attendance for the TuLame games counts for the Nola bowl we might have 80,000 in attendance!
