I do plan to get a keg again this year. I plan to put a post together and get it up later this weekend, so we can start the planning. I've already had PMs from a lot of you and it looks like it's going to be a great party this year.

Let me know if there is anything in particular I should bring such as plates, napkins, etc. Will we have the Abita keg this year? I am very willing to pay our part to have it. Abita is not available in Fayetteville.

I'm thinking of bringing some kind of finger food appetizer & a sweet (cookies?).

MamaSaint - I was your semi-close neighbor at one time. I was raised up in Sterlington.

No problem. I'm only two sections over from the visitor tunnel.

Also, I posted some nice spots for Saturday evening for those coming in town. And some of those are good for post-game.

Hmmm....we are about the same age, too. I will be 57 two days after the Panthers game. We've got to get together to compare notes. A few kids from Sterlington went to Bastrop High back then. We might have some common friends. My best friend grew up in Sterlington.

Any extra tickets for sale?

What is the scalping situation like at BOA?

 

[LKN H20Girl]

Well, today was a buyers' market. Tons of great seats available. And we're 4-1. No idea why they were so available.

 

[dome patrol]

Well...it's the Chiefs. I'm 50/50 whether I'm going to get one off the net or just wing it at the stadium. I'm kinda leery going into enemy territory and trying to scalp. Kinda throws your leverage right out the window.

 

[LKN H20Girl]

I'd say to wing it. However, if we win next week, it'll be more difficult. But for some reason, the Saints game isn't one of our bigger sell-outs. I think you'll be fine. I'll also let you know if I come across some extras - I usually have some.

 

[dome patrol]

Good deal..we're flying into CLT Friday night and driving to Columbia the next morning for the LSU game. We're staying in CLT so we can just driveback after the game and be ready for Sunday. Always wanted to pull the "double" before. Shoot me a PM if you come across anything.

I can't remember exactly but I'm going to the Panthers/Chiefs game this week-end. I'll find out which tunnel the visiting team enters the field & which side they warm up on. I'm not positive (because I have no sense of direction in that stadium) that the Saints warmed up on the same side of the field last year & the year before. Oh yeah....there is no overhang at all so bring a hat.

I was in Section 107 which was in the panther's butt of the tunnel they come out of...lol. It was right where they shoot off the cannon when they score. It would have been great if we were Panthers fans. The Chiefs warmed up on the other side of the field from the tunnels.

The only good thing about the game for my husband was seeing Tony Gonzalez set the all-time receiving yards record for tight ends. I have come down with some kind of upper respiratory infection & spent time in the emergency medical services room. They couldn't have been any nicer or more helpful.

I'm hoping it will be a little cooler for our game.

I know I said I would have a tailgate planning thread posted this past weekend, but I got busy and didn't get to it. However, I am getting things together now and will have something posted later today. I'll start a new thread so we don't have to sort through this one to find information. I'll put a link in this thread to the new one. I'll also PM those who have informed me they are coming.
