You can park for free under the interstate all around the dome

I guess I'll just try and leave realy early tomorrow to find a spot then. I guess dome parking is already settled? You think you could just roll up and try to pay?

Park uptown on St. Charles Ave and take the Streetcar downtown for $1.25 ! After the game take it back to your car for another $1.25. No hassle at all.

You won't need to leave super early to find a spot there. A lot of people are already in the city and parked.

Dome parking is a rip off. I'm not sure how they handle it though.

True, prob leave around 830-9.

I know it's a little expensive but man is it convenient for Saints games.

The Dome doesn't allow over night parking, so if you are early enough, you will get a spot. They have 5,000 spots.

Ps: bring your WALLET $$

Harrahs or along Tulane Ave. near Banks and hoof it. Be careful on side streets though gets dark in those areas.

not sure how much, prob 20-25$.

depends on how early you get there if it will be full or not. but you cant leave you car over night or for an extended period after the game. And getting out is a bitch, bumper to bumper. i wouldnt park in there if it were free

Yes I realize there is parking closer been going Saints games 20+ years but depending how early get there the radius of available spaces free; I also meant Galvez area not Banks is pay parking under overpass as well.
