re: Who Remembers Beer Backpacks at Tulane Stadium?

Yep - as a kid, we used to go scurrying around the stadium after the game, looking for discarded programs and checking to see if any doubloons were left inside. One year they sold a bronze set of the doubloons.
I also recall that the beer back packs caused a few fights in the stands, when the beermen would turn to the side, they would occasionally smack the fan sitting on the aisle in the face with the back of the beerpack.
They went to the beer backpack after they sold beer in a can the first season - too many people were heaving half filled cans on the field at the refs at the end of the games!
