September Football Times

[Lord McBuckethead]

Crappy games. What more can you want. Got lucky last year pretty much.

Nice thing is, the businesses do better when we have 11 oclock games.

just fyi... and no disrespect to anyone here on the board, but the U-La-La game in the Dome is the same weekend as Southern Decadence aka Gay Mardi Gras. The prices for hotels and everything will be sky high. Large crowds, inconveniences, etc.

Damn, that sucks. I know New Orleans has something going on just about every weekend, but not everything is big enough to make it inconvenient.

lol- we learned this lesson a decade ago during our annual fantasy football draft trip. We spent most of the weekend in strip clubs because of it. Never again.

Based on last year's disapointing season, I anticipated some 1100 AM games and didn't renew season tickets, glad I made that move.

He'ssssssssssss back!!!

Pat O's won't even be open for a hurricane pregame

Man don't even drink anything in any of those tourist traps on Bourbon. All those places are serving mostly moonshine in their drinks and have been doing it for years. Balloons their profits. You will feel like you got run over by a Mack truck the next morning. You can just walk up and down poydras street and there are plenty of little dives on it to party in. Go to the maringy after the game and get down if you want a party . Its a couple blocks past french market.

I am probably going to try and go to this game if I can get tickets at a decent price. We need to smoke ULL.

Is USM going to be on CBS?

I got a hotel on Canal for 112 per night through a priceline deal. That was a month ago though. Prices may have gone up by now. I will have fun in Nola regardless of who is there. I do with the game time was a few hours later, but I will power through it.

Yep, I just looked on Hotwire app, and it has these deals for a Friday-Sunday stay...

$123/ night - 4-star Superdome area
$118/night - 4-star bourbon st area
$90/night - 4-star French quarter miss river area

Then the ongoing festivities in the area must not carry as much weight as it used to. I remember it being a madhouse. I stand corrected.

Hotwire always beats all the others in Nola though, so I'm sure prices are higher on other sites

You should def go to the KSU game if you get a chance. Thats a big game for the year, solid P5 opponent at home I would expect a good crowd

Zuber against his old team. Maybe he goes off for a monster game like we haven't seen since Fred Ross.

Lucky depends on who's perspective. But I do realize why fans who go to the games love the night games.

For those that work some part of the game or a surrounding business, early is pretty good.

That's about 1/3 the cost in Starkville/Columbus for game weekends.
