The game is March 24 at Alex Box vs. Tulane.

Non-season ticket holders can reserve tickets starting Feb. 28. All tickets are $20.

Me and some family make this game every year. It's become kind of a tradition. Still planning on doing it with the move to BR. We will be out there, after top golf in the morning cooking. Let me know if you want to stop by.

I live in BR and have always made the trek down to Nola for this game. The Nola LSU fans really look forward to it. They tailgate and show up every year. I really hope they end up playing it at UNO in the future (if the Shrine on Airline is out of the picture). Especially with the Nola ties to the Pontiff family.

I'll attend this year, but the special nature of the game will be lost by playing it at the Box.

I agree.

The Wally, Jr. tribute video during the 7th inning stretch should look nice on the big video board.

What is the stated reason it's out of the picture?

Whats the deal with Zephyr Field (or whatever the hell it's called now)? I know the team isn't in NOLA anymore, but why does that mean the stadium can't be used for this?

NOLA Gold Rugby has taken over the facility. I think only them and High School football will be played there. New name is the Gold Mine on Airline

Zephyr field is all grass now. The only dirt remaining is the warning tracks. Like poster above said, it’s configured for rugby.

That’s bait

But uno would have made sense.

With it being in BR, it’s just another game
