I just have a question about the celebration/basketball game on Saturday. I know they don't charge parking for womens games but are they charging for parking for the celebration? I plan on getting there around 3ish or just before 3 and then tailgating until the mens game, anyone have any idea?

it is suppose to be free to the public......now i am not sure about the mens game, but thats waht they are saying about the football thing

Well they don't charge for women's games so unless they are charging to park for this celebration I don't see how they can charge us to park when we've been in the parking lot for 3 hours already

they're not charging for any parking

nice!

from hutton's blog a couple weeks ago:

"The event is free, and everyone who comes will get a commemorative New Orleans Bowl ticket autographed by The Voice. The first 1,000 fans will also receive a NOB championship poster.

Fans can also get ticket information for the 2008 football season and t-shirts and other goodies will be on sale. Should be a good time. Unfortunately I will be in Washington D.C. to cover Panthers vs. Capitols. Those plans were made before the date of the bash was announced, or I would have tried to make a trade.

The event will be followed by a women’s and men’s basketball doubleheader vs. North Texas. I am told those who stay in the gym will get to watch the b-ball games for free, and there will not be any parking fee for the football celebration."

i can't see how they'd charge for parking after one has been there all day for free to the football celebration and the women's game… it's gotta be free

good thing i have my owl card…..walk in and out as much as i please…..


and since they wont serve beer inside i will have to serve myself outside!
