For all of you going to New Orleans...

Post

Just in case non of you thought of this… Don't forget to have someone that is still in town, get you either the Sun-Sentinel or Palm Beach Post. I am sure each and everyone of us, will probably want to save the front page of the sports section when FAU wins the bowl. It will make a nice addition to the collection.

Everyone watch your pockets in New Orleans.  We have all ready had 3 people get hit by a pick pocket.  Hit one staff member to the tune of $300.

Be safe!

Yikes.  I wouldn't carry around $300 in my pocket in Boca!

For all of you going to New Orleans...

Its all part of the experience.  Look at it this way, at least your not getting shot at the Detroit Motor City Bowl.

Teambeer is the most knowledgeable FAU sports fan I know, way smarter than me.

I don't think the Rose Bowl is in a good location either.  I know the Sun Bowl in El Paso, Texas you can throw a rock into Mexico!

Funny you should mention that. In the same Sun-Sentinel with the spread about FAU winning the Troy game was an article that said New Orleans is now the #1 murder capital in the nation. I think it was directly under the Bowlin' article too.

Maybe that's why we've only sold 700 tickets…?  ::)

Pardon my French (pun intended) but N.O. is a bit of a %$^& hole. One block it is beautiful and the next it is really scary. If you don't exactly know the path to take to get somewhere it is best to take a cab even if it is only a 5 to 10 block walk. Those 5 to 10 blocks could be pretty bad even if your point of departure and your destination are in really nice areas. I hope everyone has a safe trip. See you all in New Orleans tomorrow!!

GO OWLS!!!

We played FIU at the Orange Bowl last month and the Orange Bowl isnt in the greatest part of town either…
