Anyone have any insight how much a black sedan/suv would cost from New Orleans --- Tiger Stadium --- New Orleans? I guess that includes roughly 8hrs of standby time.

I think it is 500+, the 8hrs is the part that will add some money to it.

Have done it from BR to New Orleans for dinner. It is not cheap and worth the hotel room everytime.

ETA: I would make some calls because some services might offer a ride on a private bus or something for the game.

I was thinking in the $500-600 range total. Go with a couple of buddies or couples, and the costs wouldn't be so bad.

It has been a while since I did the BR-NO trip, but that is about the cost for 2-3hrs wait. Not sure how much more for a 8hr wait.

Is there a minimum or wait time allowance?

That ain't too bad a price

damn this is a business plan.

Get a party bus, make it kinda classy, just have one stripper pole.
Have a great stocked bar and some tailgate food and charge people to take them back and forth to/from games.

Bet you could make and extra $1200 a week with that.

Hell, I was just wanting a SUV. I just want to get there and back trouble free. The stripper pole & booze would be a nice perk though.

There has to be a 4-6hr minimum charge. How fast do helicopters go?

Never mind
