    My company has a year-end close and I'm the Controller so I couldn't make it even if tickets magically appeared. Houston to Nola is a short flight so I'm holding out for the slightest glimmer of hope but I don't think it's gonna happen.

    We stayed for the entire weekend of the 21-14 OU game and had a blast. I wish I could replay that weekend over and over and over and over and over. That 1st quarter had so many big plays and took forever. We were in the endzone that 4 out of 5 TD's were scored. The Justin Vincent run set the tone for the game. My dad and I limped over to Bourbon street after the game with utter satisfaction. We didn't quite make it to a bar but stopped for a few White Castle burgers.

    I'm almost postive the game vs. OU was on a Sunday night rather than a Monday. It was a crazy atmoshpere the night before the game and I thought that was a Sat night. The night before the game this time would be a Sun night so I guess it wouldn't be the same. Would the Sat. night atmosphere be bigger than Sun night?

    I am driving down from Fort Lauderdale on Friday before the game......no ticket however

    I was in Lafayette during the 03 'ship and I wanted to be in New Orleans to soak in the experience...this time I won't miss out

    We need to get it organized as to a TF meeting place and time

    Has anyone been working on this?

    Even if I had the opportunity to go, I'm not sure I would. Last time I went to a bowl game was the 87 Sugar Bowl. Haven't cared much for Neb since.

    I'll be in La. 12/26 - 30, mostly in Mandeville. Will catch the 'ship on my small screen TV, and read the game thread and check chat during commercials and halftime.
