My buddies and I pick a game every year, and we havent been to Tiger stadium yet!! Has anybody ever tried to get an uber to NOLA after the game? We are coming in for the alabama game and know it will be crazy.

with it being a prime time game and people not leaving early you won't get back to NOLA until 2-3am IMO. I'd get an airbnb somewhere in BR and just party somewhere in BR after the game if that's what you are looking for. UBER will cost you a couple hundred bucks easy depending on the surge

An Uber right now from LSU to Nola is over $100. Good luck getting one after the bama game

Drive in and Sleep in your car

This was discussed last week.

It will cost hundreds of dollars for an uber.

There's round trip service on rally bus and also a bus that leaves Metairie (7000 block of Veterans) 4 or 5 hours before the game.

I can put you in contact with the TriParish bus to/from BR.

I had a friend who Ubered from pensacola beach to mobile. Was shite faced and didn’t feel like getting out the water and was left by friends. Drunkenly called an Uber and rode with no shoes or shirt. Cost them like $300

Stupid idea imo. Rates are going to be hiked too. Youre gonna spend upwards of 500 on a 45 min ride. It would be cheaper to get a hotel in BR for the night. Enjoy BR after the game and then head back in the morning.

5? Jesus.

Just rent a car. That would cost you less than $100.

Rent a car. Just have one person not drink during the game. Will have 4+ hours to sober up (5+ hours before he can drive faster than idle) and don’t make him pay for the rental.

What secret route gets you from Baton Rouge to Nola in 45 minutes after the Bama game? You leaving at halftime and taking the loop?

Great point. It's 45 min away but you're looking at a 2 hr drive.

I'm an idiot. I drive to BR quite a bit and I'm thinking of the drive from my house in Metairie.
