re: Out-of-towner coming in for ‘Bama game. Tailgating suggestions?

The French Quarter will be overrun w/bammer fans. Avoid those a-holes. I like Mambos in the quarter for solid Cajun fare….walk the river boardwalk and check out Cafe du Monde and the French Market. Get reservations at Irene’s Fine Cuisine in the quarter for a fantastic dinner. Get to campus early and enjoy the tailgating. Wear your Michigan gear (Geaux Bleu) or State gear (Geaux Green….Geaux White)… again, avoid Bama assholes as their food sucks just as bad as their attitudes. I will be coming down with my wife from Michigan as well but we are flying! I’ve made the drive a many a time. Enjoy Illinois and Mississippi as that will be 3/4 of your drive!!!
