Brits on tour - Vs Florida and @ Ole Miss - Update - question re tours

Good morning!

You will not be able to walk from the hotel in BR (unless you want to trek a couple miles), but you can find places to park around campus. I suggest paying someone to park in their yard since you are not familiar with the area (or get there early, as in before 9-10 am if it is a night game, and park in the Kerby Smith Dorm parking lot for free and much safer)!

StubHub for tix!

Friday night parties depend on what you are into. 18-21 and like drunk college girls... Go to Tigerland! 21-up and are into a more "classy" crowd (which is not 100% of the people) go downtown.

After the game, make your way to Walk On's, or Fred's, to watch a band, and proceed to get blackout drunk while traffic dies down (you can walk to those places from the stadium, and you might want to drop a pin on your phone wherever you park)! Take whatever sluts y'all pick up (which you will because you are British ) back to the hotel via cab. Make sure you call said cab at least 1 hour to 45 minutes in advance to desired departure time. Wake up and get cab to the pin you dropped! (Discard women accordingly)

Nola... Bourbon is a must for 1 (and only 1) night. After that, there are many places to visit, but I am too tired to type this out on my phone right now.

Finding hotels in Oxford will probably be tough (there are some on Kayak right now), but if you look now you should be able to find something closer than Jackson.

Most importantly HAVE A GOOD TIME!!! Oh, and stop by my tailgate!

COYS!!!

You really can't walk. Just take a cab if you refuse to drive. I park in the free lot by the ag center on the corner of highland and s. stadium. You have to get there early as it will fill up. If you plan to walk to walk ons or something like that afterwards the hayfields may be a better option as its on that side.

Any tips?

Mind the gap.

For the Ole Miss game check out The Shack Up Inn in Clarksdale, MS. Bout an hours drive west from Oxfart. Birthplace of the blues. Cool place.

ShackUpInn

Oh wow cool. We were going to do a night at ground zero blues and stay in an apartment upstairs earlier in the week... May amend itinery and move clarksdale to the end.

Thanks!

I tailgate right in between the Indian Mounds, under the Oak Tree... You should be able to get the tickets emailed to you, and you can print them out. Check for that option when you are looking at them.

You can check the ticket marketplace on lsusports.net as the game gets closer. Those are face value tickets sold by those who can't go to the game through lsu. Problem is with it being fla that might be tough but you could get lucky.

Update and another question:

Everything is booked except Florida tickets. Still working on that.

Will be in the LSU section in Oxford. Row 28! Anyone nearby? We have low seat numbers. So probably on towards q section.

I know people on here have mentioned as hoc tours / access to tiger stadium. Basically, we will be travelling back through BR on the Tuesday after the Florida game. As we are flying a long way, I'd love to see as much as possible. Is there a way to go onto the field or tour any of the facilities? That would really put the icing on the cake of this trip.

Two together... Preferably not in the uppers. If I'm only going to see LSU once (at least for a while) I'd really really like to be in the bowl if I can. Any ideas?

FYI- The Florida weekend is also the weekend of the World Championship Gumbo Cookoff in New Iberia with Sunday being the big day! Also that weekend is the Festivals Acadian in Lafayette which some people say is better than Jazz Festival thats Friday-Sunday! Great music and food and good lookn Cajun girls with dar boots on and lookn to cut a rug! Those 2 events alone are worth ditching New Orleans!
