Try the OT board. Maybe somebody will give you a lift on their jet.

Why would someone fly to New Orleans for a game in Baton Rouge?
and why would someone spend the money to fly in from Australia and then not want to pay for a rental car or Uber?

Does not compute.

i'm sure your girlfriend's father would appreciate you seeking for transportation on an internet message board by a complete fricking stranger to give his daughter a ride back to fricking new orleans.

You'd be more safe in Gaza then a greyhound bus in Louisiana

Cancel the Greyhound tickets and bum a ride with someone on here in exchange for pics of your gf. From what I remember, Aussies like to drink and cuss so you'll fit in just fine

And you end up with simple little stations like this Brightline Terminal in Orlando.

You can get a rental for the day. There is free parking on campus. You can Uber after the game but it is pricey and you will have to wait awhile.

Holy shite mate, DO NOT TAKE A GREYHOUND IN BATON ROUGE OR NEW ORLEANS!
DO NOT!

somebody help this guy out.

Worst case scenario for you is to rent a car or uber.

The odds of you getting your arse beat, stabbed, shot, infected with aids or some other disease or having a needle of heroin/coke/fentanyl accidentally piercing you, etc are all real possibilities just being near that greyhound station. And i guarantee you'll see things you can't unsee if you go there at night. Hell you will during the day as well.


again, do not take a greyhound.

I could maybe pick you up from Greyhound to take to campus, but your best bet is to rent a car. Hit me up for more info: laservet@gmail.com

Enterprise does local rentals outside of airports

I would say, if OP has no experience driving on the Right side of the road, driving it for the first time from NOLA to BR will be an experience

Best bet is to Uber or get a rental car.

If all else fails, head to the rugby tailgate and start talking. Big white tent(s) near the flagpole. Being Australian, I'm sure you'll fit in. There's usually a few guys that come in from New Orleans that might have room.
