Congrats Eye311

Been waiting since 2007, but we have and still do go to games when we can.
Have a ball. With new renovations - Dome and roster-wise - it's gonna be awesome..

Sorry, that was a typo. Meant to say 2006. I signed up after we beat the falcons in the return to the superdome game.

My grandfather used to have season tickets in the plaza level for our family to use, and I had been going to games with him and my dad since the early 90s. But my grandfather was convinced that Benson was going to move the team to San Antonio after Katrina, so he got pissed and cancelled the season tix

Talk about bad timing of a decision

Thanks!

Actually, I paid 1900 per seat for these. They are in section 145. Got 3 of them. I believe these were in the section that got a price hike this year right?

The only areas they had available were plaza sideline (1900 per seat) and plaza club level (around 2500 per seat I think). I chose to go with the sideline, and the ticket rep said all they had available were groups of 3 tickets together scattered around. I landed 3 in sec 145.

They were going pretty fast yesterday, I'm sure they won't last much longer. I'm pretty sure that these seats became available bc of the price increase and ppl not wanting to pay and gave up their seats.

Just got my call. All they have left is Plaza Level seats for $2,980 per seat. Still thinking it over as to if I can pull the trigger on 6 grand for two seats!
