Question about Superdome seating

canuckredux · 08-23-2012, 06:19 AM

I'm coming to NOLA for the Saints-Niners game in November. We're in the process of getting tix and have been thinking about getting something near the tunnel where the Saints come out. None of the seating charts that I've seen seem to display this info, so I was wondering if any of you would know where/what section(s) the tunnel is in. Thanks.

I sit in 325 and they come out just to my right. For halftime and post game, they go in the corner to my left.

according to this, the appropriate sections would be:
127, 128, 129 for pre-game

132, 134, 135 for the rest of the game

Their tunnel is to the left of section 134.

For introductions they come out of the Main Tunnel (128)

Exactly, so if you look at this seating chart:

Section 128 is directly over the tunnel that the Saints come out when they are announced. But that is the side they practice on.

Do yourself a favor and wait until gameday to buy your tickets. There are always still plenty left on the ticket exchange, and people start getting nervous that theirs wont sell so you will get a better price.

I sit in sec 132 next to the saints tunnel. If I am in my seats the tunnel is directly to my left. I love my seats!

The tunnel I am talking about is the one the players enter and exit the field for warm ups, at half time, and after the game.

Thanks everyone! Looking forward to visiting your city. (Been following the team for about 25 years now; makes sense that I should actually, you know, go there at some point.)

Sounds like a good idea, but I would be concerned if it becomes the Sunday nighter-possible sellout? Plus there are 4 of us, so getting 4 seats together would likely be a challenge. One of the guys is already looking at tickets and he's putting the squeeze on me to book my flight now.

Consider getting two sets of two or even singles to get better seats. Sitting together is ok but I would rather sit in a single seat than 4 real high up. You can also swap around at half time.

Thanks for the heads up on that approach. I will give it a try on my next tickets. Paid $200+ for $45 tickets last year for the Bears Game. Ouch
