I was at the game and there were TONS more OSU folks than I expected. They really traveled well and it wasn't a lopsided crown by any measure. They did get quiet for the second half, though.

The downside is all the LSU fans stuck around for the trophy so all the OSU people got all the restaurant seats around town.

Where were you sitting Joe???? By the show of color from our seats in the end zone, it was very lopsided. Now they did have a great show of fans but did not come close to the number of Tigers in attendance. And yes, they did get all the tables. We found one at Jean Lafittes and the food turned out to be quite tasty.

We were in the Terrace level on the East side (the Allstate logo was upside down to us and the LSU endzone was to our left). Section 613.

We ended up eating at Harrah's, it was the only place open that still had seats available when we finally made it there: midnight.

You were in the ozone layer Joe. We were in Section 150 Row 16. Kind of the corner. We wanted to go to Harrah's but had a minor with us.

We were in about the 4th or 5th row of the Terrace, it was great. I had to bring a camera that would fit in my wife's purse, though, so I couldn't bring a decent long lens and thus have very few shots of action on the field.

I couldn't bring my camera. Now why is that? Why couldn't you bring a camera with a detachable lens?

I did bring a camera with a detachable lens, but I had to carry what would fit in my wife's purse, an 18-55 lens was all that would. That's all I needed for the shots I mostly took, anyway. I took mostly shots of people near me, not players on the field.

Are you holding out on us Joe??? Is there a secret library of asscrack somewhere on a compact flash card in the joepole household?
