New Orleans 2012

[PhillyPhreak54]

I just emailed a colleague of mine who is an LSU alum and goes to just about every big LSU game in Death Valley. I asked for the best source on tickets and if he has any hookups.

hes not gonna be able to get any tickets but at least ask him what the going price will be for a ticket outside the stadium on gameday/night.....the online market place is always way overpriced and im curious as to what the gameday market price will be...and ask him in geenral what the scalping scene is like there

That's what I pretty much asked him...I think he's traveling so it may take some time to get a response.

I might make it.  Considering I'm @ bama I should probably be hanged if I don't swing this weekend.

He's already booked room and flight.

I think this is the list of confirmed so far:


Phreak
IGY
Phatty
DH
rjs
T-Hawk
Feva
hbionic
SunMo (the month before)
Sarge (outside chance)

Did I miss anyone?

So I talked to my LSU guy today and he said that online for a nosebleed we can expect to pay $275-$350. Scalping outside will be around $200 for uppers. He said that we'd need to leave NO around 9am to get up there and even if we didn't find any seats there are a lot of bars where we could watch. The drive between BR and NO is only 90 mins so if we drove up and struck out then we just go back to NO and get zesty and shoot craps.

200 for an upper is nothing

why do you have to leave at 9am?

[PhillyPhreak54]

Apparently it gets crazy up there and he said the later in the day the harder it is to score tickets and find a place to tailgate/park

[Eagles_Legendz]

I MAY be able to get some through Bama.  MAY.  If people don't mind sitting in a Bama section.  No promises just heard there was a small chance.

That's a tough choice...giving up a Saturday in New Orleans...I may just pass. I don't think I'll be going anywhere that early...specially not to sit in traffic. If a group goes I may be down....but I'm not down to go and scalp with the possiblity of watching a game I don't care for in a bar when New Orleans is 80 miles away.

[phattymatty]

yeah i'm not getting in til sat. afternoon so won't be able to go but that game will be bad ass.

[Feva]

So I'm at work and I'm chatting with one of my bosses and I tell him how I'm going down to NOLA for the Eagles/Saints. He starts telling me how there'd be so much for me to learn by going inside the MNF truck and sitting in with the Director (who happens to be my best friend up here) and seeing how things are done there... which is absolutely true. It would look good on me and all that. I tell him that while that'd be great... I'm the LAST person they'll want to see up in that truck with the condition I'm going to be in by the time Monday night rolls around, that I'll be shteinfaced enough to get HIM fired along with me for even suggesting I go in there.

That being said, if at some point on that Monday, my drunk ass starts talking about getting myself or any of you bastiches anywhere NEAR anything MNF or ESPN... tell me to shut the farg up and get the next round.

[ice grillin you]

get me a ticket from espn and/or mnf and i promise not to make a scene

[MDS]

your best friend is chip dean?

im sure hes a nice guy and all but lol @ mark shapiro for pushing out esocoff and guadelli to go with dean and that loser rothman. the results show.

[ice grillin you]

maybe you can come after all and meet all your jew idols....shapiro and rothman....for real?

[MDS]

shapiro went to work for lil danny's water world or whatever theme park he owns but hes more or less the reason why espn went from cool sports network to douche central (discounting feva and some other solid people, of course)

rothman is a pos who "banned" jimmy kimmel after he came on and godforbid got a laugh.

both of them and danny are NOT welcome at my yom kippur party

[ice grillin you]

so jews really are controlling the worlds monotary system from a bunker on shelter island

[MDS]

yes of course but i can say with completely sincerity i have zero access to it and am not welcome at their parties
