Little over 3 weeks and counting.
Got excited and had to drink one of your locals, actually I'm workin' on 6 of them.
And yes, I'm kinda in the corner @ 107.
I like the corners when sitting that low, I think you get a better view of the plays evolving.
If you'll be at the game, hopefully you can swing by and say "hey".
Nice to see you're enjoying one of our local brews!
And very nice! Our Plaza Corner sections (Sections 107, 121, 137 and 149) are vastly underrated, especially when you're sitting that low like that; I've sat in the front row in 149 and 121 and both were dope. I'll be at the game, but I'll be across the stadium in Section 144. It's in the same endzone, just across the field from you, haha. My current seats are actually in the middle of the 3rd row and directly behind the big blue replay booth, so I'm rather visible even across the stadium.
I live out of town so by the time we make our hour and a half drive, we typically make our walk to the stadium and head straight to our seats since it's just a hassle moving around the stadium wearing all this ****...
:lol:

We can do a role call, and see if we can organize a .Net "meet up"
Hmm, pending my schedule, I may have to crash this .Net meet-up. :lol:

There was a question about what parking lot the 12th man tours party would be in.
I heard something about 5th story and thought that it was in a parking garage.
I emailed Jason and got this response.
This looks and sounds awesome.
Wife and I will be doing this for sure. Based on Dallas last year, I wouldn't miss it.
Benson Tower is in the center of this picture.
Party will be on the 5th floor. As stated in the email, the area for the party has both indoor & outdoor sections, both will have a bar, and the indoor area is large enough to accommodate all. Bad weather will not be an issue while at this party.
The terrace over looks the Saints fans tailgate area.
Really? Pretty dope indeed, I didn't know they rented out spaces like that. I'm not sure what floor, but our local FOX8 affiliate that's owned by Benson is housed there and that's where they shoot most of if not all the news broadcasts from.
Champions Square is this big open courtyard type place where a large contingent of fans of both teams will congregate before games. There's a stage in the corner and a live band will perform in the hours leading up to the game.
This is the view from the grand staircase that leads up to the Superdome. Benson Tower is on the far-left and based on the description you're providing, I'd guess that this terrace viewing area would be right above those Bud Light advertisements or the level above it.
This would be the approximate view from it or maybe a little lower, minus the chairs obviously. Champions Square holds seated concerts as well.

StubHub only has 40 parking passes available. I'm sure that spaces will be available upon arrival but I'm anal, want things secured ahead of time.
I just bought a pass at the stadium, it wasn't cheap but I'll be close, and I hope secure.
Any way, if you want to pre-purchase parking, I wouldn't wait much longer.
Does your purchase say what Dome garage you're in, pmedic? If so, I could help and let you know what would be the best route to them. It should either be Garage 1 (on the Poydras side, right next to Benson Tower), Garage 2 (on the Girod Street side and across the grand stair case from Garage 1), Garage 5 (on the Girod St. side and opposite side from Champions Square) or Garage 6 (on the Poydras St. side and opposite side from Champions Square).
