Parkwhiz or spothero .. Google those two. Really good ones to be had for around 50-100.

Download Premium Parking app.

Or, park in Kenner and Uber in.

May want to think about a Taxi or Uber/Lyft so you don't have to worry about parking.

You could park somewhere on St Charles and take the streetcar in.

It would be slow, but prolly cool.

If you went early enough, you could just pub crawl it up St Charles.

Assuming you are in good health, You are way too close to drive to game. Take the street car or short Uber. You could even rent a bike and ride Esplanade ave to the back of the French quarter and make your way to the game from there

Food

Parkway bakery or bevi seafood for poorboys

Liuzzas by the track for New Orleans comfort food

Blue oak for bbq

1000 figs - Mediterranean

Toups Meatery

Katie’s - vast menu , good for group

Bro stops for dessert

If you insist on driving, google the business “Grainger” at the corner of S galvez & poydras. Plenty of safe street parking there

If you are near City Park, you can catch a Street Car there and take it into downtown and then walk. The pre-game atmosphere in the French Quarter is worth taking in before the game.

Take the street car

Those things are slow and crowded as F word during big games. In my experience at least.

Park on Earhart Blvd near Earhart & Claiborne. There are some stairs that go up and over the interstate there and you walk right up to the dome...right between Gate G and Gate A. It's super easy to get in and out of there. I always park here for the Saints games.

Nah, it’s not that bad coming from that area, esp on a Monday. I do it during the middle of Mardi Gras weekend even? It’s pretty accessible & comfortable

I seriously doubt there is ANY of this to be found in NOLA. Specially for a out of state vechicle.

I've always found...You get what you pay for
