Saints Game Extravaganza
We went to a very expensive football game having reservations since it was our first time. I didn't want to experiment with a rough crowd and bought tickets at the Club level, (just in case) thinking that it was going to be a once in a lifetime experience. I was surprise to find out that the crowd was very respectful and friendly. The Plaza area of the Superdome was well behaved but there were areas where the public was standing by choice most of the game and if were behind them you needed to stand to watch the game too. I didn't want to park in the streets around the Superdome since I don't know well the area and was surprised to find out that the Saints-sponsored parking was $30 cash-only. I wanted to experience the atmosphere before the game inside the dome and did not venture out to Champions Square where there were hundreds of people gathering before the game right outside of the 'dome, After this experience now I'm thinking about doing this at least once per year.
a day at the saints facility
first....i arrived at the facility at 9:30am...the guard at gate did not know why i was there....i had to tell him why i was there....and he said when does it start...i told him 11am....he asked me why was i there at 9:30.......i asked about parking and he said all parking was in the baseball parking as nobody was getting in this gate.....i had not been told about not parking inside the facility parking on any of my emails that i received from the saints organization....then there were no seats inside the practice bldg but just a few in front of stage.
Next....i would like the saints organization after advertising that "two lucky season ticket holders would announce the draftees"....when did the picking happen as i did not see or hear of anyone picking names to do this. Also, i talked to one of the people that called out the draftees and was told that she was not a season ticket holder......so....where and when did this "lucky season ticket holder" get picked.......
Next, where were my seats on my ticket located......nobody knew.....
Next, i did not get 5 pounds of crawfish, a lot less.......
Next, where were the saints players....i saw about seven but nobody announed them or pointed them out until there sat at a table to sign autographs.....where were the starters?
Next, this was advertised as a season ticket holder only event.......not so!!!!!
Not good this year!
This was my second time attending this event. I was so pleased on last year, that I could not wait for the opportunity to go again. This year there were too many people for the amount of vendors that were there. The lines were long, things closed down wayyyy before the rain started. You only received crawfish this year,no corn ,potatoes, or sausage. I am also disappointed as in last year of the few amount of current Saints players that were there. Why for an event such as this they bring out the grandpa Saints? Maybe it should be called the paper bag reunion. Finally the staff was RUDE! There was equipment left out on the field and rather they put them away for the event or have them guarded or taped off, they holler at guest to get off. Really, not the spirit of the Who Dat Nation!!!! Very disappointed fan!
GREAT DAY
OVER ALL IT WAS A GREAT DAY AT THE FAN FEST TRAINING CAMP DAY. IT WAS A NICE SETUP, GREAT SEATS, AND JUST A WONDERFUL TIME AND OTHER FANS. THE ONLY THING THAT I WISH WAS DIFFERENT WAS THE FOOD SELECTION. THERE COULD HAVE BEEN MORE FOOD VENDORS TO CHOOSE FROM.
I BROUGHT MY 6 YR. SON, WHO THINKS DREW BREES IS THE NICEST MAN IN THE WORLD. HE WANTED TO MEET DREW TO TELL HIM THAT HE WAS HIS #1 FAN AND THANK YOU FOR HIS VALENTINE CARD.( I MADE HIM A CARD LAST FEB. THAT HAD BREES THROWING A BALL AND I SAID YOU ARE OUR MVP AND ITS A BREES) MASON
TOOK IT AS AND I QUOTE " OH MAN! DREW BREES IS THE NICEST MAN IN THE WORLD TO MAKE THIS CARD FOR ME ON VALENTINES DAY." . HOWEVER HE
LOVES THE SAINTS BUT IS NOT PATIENT ENOUGH TO SIT THERE AND WAIT ALL THAT TIME TO MAYBE MEET DREW TO THANK HIM. HE DID GET TO THROW DEUCES WITH DEUCE. NEXT TIME I WILL HAVE TO GO BY MYSELF CUZ WE HAD TO CUT THE DAY SHORT CUZ OF THE RAIN AND MASONS 6 YR. OLD PATIENTS.LOL
BUT I SUGGEST EVERYONE NEEDS TO GO SUPPORT OUR TEAM IT WAS AN OVERALL GREAT FAMILY DAY WITH OUR WHO DAT NATION FAMILY.
Great experience for the whole family!!!
From the time we got there til the time we left, we had a great time. The wait line in the begining appeared to be long, but once the gates opened we were through in less than 2 minutes and greeted by the Saints Cheerleaders, which the boys were excited to get their pictures taken. Once in the stadium the line flowed smoothly and were able to quicly seat ourselves in any seat we chose that were available. Most people were taking the front row seats. Instead we chose the last row at the top which provided a back rest from the structure of the bleachers seating as well as shade of the trees, which was great in the heat. And also had a nice breeze from being higher up. By choosing the top row we were able to sit at the 40 yard line and able too see everything perfectly. When practice was over it took some time, but with a little patience was able to get Drew Brees' autograph on all 3 boys' jerseys. Wonderful family outing. Also, no one is allowed to bring in food or beverages, but there are several vendors selling cold refreshments as well as consession stands. Highly recommend!
What a game! What a venue!
My sister and her husband were staying with us after the storm so we thought it would be awesome to head to game with them to keep their minds off of Ida aftermath. They ended up having to go back for a medical emergency of a loved one and couldn’t go, but we went anyway. I can’t say enough for what a nice place it was to travel to see a game. We were up in section 410 but at the 50 yard line we could see everything. Thanks for having a good PA system so we could actually hear what was going on. One of the best NFL games we’ve attended. The Saints trouncing Green Bay was the red beans on the rice!
