Chi-bird said:I thought the stadium in Frisch was good, but everything else sucked. It was like playing in Elgin, and with fans spread out for 30-40 miles. There was no main area in which to gather the day before the game, after the game, etc. Everything seemed up be a $40 cab ride away, too. I spent two or three times as much on cabs as I did on a flight.
Having a bourbon street, a Beale street, a ballpark village, south beach, etc to go to would be ideal. Instead, the masses were scatter around suburban hotel after hotel.
Right on. I've been to bowl games, final 4's and championship games. Nothing compares to Bourbon Street and NOLA. Bars, restaurants, whatever is a short walk or streetcar ride. Even Bears games are better there. I've been to the new Tulane stadium but not for a game. It's pretty awesome. But money talks and bullshit walks. Frisco apparently steps up with the cash.
