Still working out how to get to New Orleans, where to stay, etc. Plane tickets have skyrocketed. I may either drive or fly into Jackson or Houston.
May I ask how much you paid?

usually you can tailgate and park at the Dome where there are garages right, but I don't know if that is possible. I will check for you.
Re: New Orleans Trip Information Thread
Great! Bringing 3 or 4 SUVs (figured that'd be easier than RV) and the top deck of a parking garage in the area would work. THANKS!

Re: New Orleans Trip Information Thread
NOLA, will there be a bar or bars where Ravens fans will congregate to watch the game? Can't afford the tix, but may go to NOLA for the game

Sure thing. $10,500 for all four (including all taxes, fees, charges, etc.). It was something like $2300 per ticket before fees, taxes, etc. (or roughly $2625 all included per ticket).
Steep, I know, but I figure that this would be a once in a lifetime kind of thing.

Everyone from New Orleans here will be rooting for the Ravens. This will feel like a home game as far as New Orleans goes. So the answer is any bar you want that locals go to.

Cool.Thanks for sharing. Kind of what I expected. I'm just looking for a single and will play daredevil and wait closer to gametime:)
Re: Super Bowl Road Trip -- Post Your Travel Plans, Suggestions Etc Here!
Looks like our fellow ravens fans who won the lottery are out in full force on craigslist unloading superbowl tickets for a big chunk of change..smh...I guess I can't blame them. Everyone's got bills to pay and there's lots of value in them
Re: Super Bowl Road Trip -- Post Your Travel Plans, Suggestions Etc Here!
I'm torn. I could afford to make the trip, but I'm having trouble finding any of my good friends who could afford it. I love the city of NOLA, but I could take 2 or 3 vacations overseas for what this trip would cost. I also hear that the atmosphere at a Superbowl is very corporate and nobody is really into the game. I remember how much fun we had in 2000 celebrating downtown and in Fells, of course I was in my twenties then and not forty. I almost think it may be just as much fun celebrating the game here in Baltimore, or at least not 6K worse.
Re: Super Bowl Road Trip -- Post Your Travel Plans, Suggestions Etc Here!
Well, its going to be a heck of a party...........Mardi Gras starts this weekend with all kinda parades and then the Super Bowl week, on Bourbon Street. Wow, that is going to be absurd. This city is normally crazy for Mardi Gras anyway.
