2011 New Orleans Bowl: LOUISIANA (32) SDSU (30)

[The Source]

I met our boy Friday evening on the way to Spanish Plaza. He was plenty fired up. Introduced me to the family. The man has a good memory. I like his enthusiasm.

Yeah I saw him on the way to Spanish Plaza too, I think he is making an attempt to bring suspenders back, if they were ever in??

Somebody called into Jay's show later this evening and said that there is a good story to Kyle's cruise and his attempt to see the game on TV. The signal faded in and out but he was going to leave it to Kyle to tell the story. From bits and pieces that I heard, it will be good. From what I understood, it took him over 3 quarters to get the game. Maybe BOP can fill in and straighten out anything that I've heard wrong.

I think when national heads talk about too many bowls and meaningless bowl games they forget something.

When you win a bowl game, your fans are every bit as happy as the fans who leave the stadium after winning the national championship.

The stakes may not be as high, but the euphoria is.

Jay, I was just thinking the other day that I might have been just as excited Saturday as I was after the Saints won the Superbowl. Hard to measure.

Yea, Kyle was fired up in Spanish Plaza. Probably got everyone fired up on the cruise.

I was on that ship earlier this year for the Saints playoff (loss) to the Seahawks, and the NCAA Champ game with Auburn and Oregon. I believe ESPN was on the tube the entire time.

Channels fade in and out as you move through the water. ESPN is one of the few that they are able to keep on fairly regulally. If I'm remembering all this correctly.

Now the local channels have been different on each cruise I've gone on.
First cruise, we had Nashville locals for the first few days, then NYC the remaining.
Second cruise, we had Denver locals (which was cool, b/c that was the same week the Rockies were playing in the World Series).
Last cruise, we had.......I don't remember now. But I remember watching the Saints game out on the deck while leaving out of New Orleans. That was crazy, until the game got ugly! And then watching the NC game out there too, while in the middle of no where.

That big screen out on the deck is 25' diagonially with a 70,000 watt sound system.

Yea! Third video on first playlist. Link to full drum cadence

They should play that during games. If they did play it during games, I blame it on alcohol.
