Yeah, and they used to rotate the brands around the stadium. One brand had the 2 end zones, another had east, and the third has west. Dixie, Falstaff and Jax, I think.

The guys would go back when the tank was empty. They\'d sit down, the center cap was popped and they would fill with cold beer out of a tap. The CO2 tank pushed the beer out of the spigot. The cups were stored in the backpack, too.


this sounds so vintage New orleans, sorry I wasnt around to experience it!

The other thing I distinctly recall were the numerous brawls in the stands during the Tulane stadium years. Seemed like every game, people would stop watching the game, and start looking in the stands at the melees. There also were many more fights on the field then what they now allow. Recall when Danny Abramowitz (sp.?) got in the middle of a pack of players fighting and kicked a guy in the arse.
