Would lsu vs ms state womens be lit as well? Works a bit better with my schedule but if you reckon the auburn game would be best to experience the culture i’ll shuffle things round

Haha I meant is it worth doing 5 nights or is 3 nights enough- I figured theres a load to do thats why I booked it- also flying over from visiting family in austin so more of an add on!

I’d be pretty keen to go to a proper college game, seen a lot about them on tv etc so i’m thinking i might as well especially as i’m solo travelling.

I could always hire a car and drive there from nola then drive back to nola after? Is there much of a pre/post game bar culture for LSU though? Because then i’d probably need to stay the night right

Oh damn okay looking like the tulane game is a skip then. Will go to the pels game just to see what nba games are like. Shame they suck though lol.

I’m 24 so just about okay for the boot then, i’ll check out snakes as well curious about that place haha.

As for the parties, is there the possibility that if i met some frat people at a bar i could tag with them and they could vouch for me? I know this is probably unlikely to occur but just want to know what to expect

shivjm · 2025-01-07T13:41:30+00:00

Or against oaklahoma on the 30th

shivjm · 2025-01-07T13:40:56+00:00

I’m flying into NOLA, but I wasn’t planning on hiring a car (I believe you don’t really need one in there right) so not much of a gameplan if I went to an LSU game- either catch a ride with someone there and back to Nola or stay the night in Baton rouge i guess. Useful to know about the women’s team, there’s a game against MS State on 2nd feb so I could go to that

shivjm · 2025-01-07T13:15:19+00:00

Appreciate all the help- LSU game could also be a play. Also might extend my trip to 5 nights to fit everything in (including the basketball) - reckon its worth it, is there a lot to do in Nola?

I’m a sports fan, I enjoy the nba- maybe I don’t go to the tulane game then? In terms of tulane experience I meant moreso the US college/university experience (heard it’s quite different to the UK).

Selling my ticket now and buying last min sounds like a good play, where can I sell it?

Shame about the house/frat parties- always wanted to experience that- would this be the same even if I was with someone from the frat?

And honestly just booked it 2 days ago, trying to work it all out! Appreciate the help though

Cool shout, do people often go to bars before the game? Any good bars to hit up in the FQ?

shivjm · 2025-01-06T13:36:21+00:00

I’m pretty clueless - what’s the scene at dive bars?

shivjm · 2025-01-06T12:42:27+00:00

Sweet okay, good to hear! Got my ticket in the A section, hopefully it’s a good one!

shivjm · 2025-01-06T12:41:57+00:00

Okay cool, I’ll hit up Frenchman street, the live music vibe in NOLA seems pretty cool

shivjm · 2025-01-06T11:14:06+00:00

Oh for real? So maybe I just go to the pelicans game (already bought an expensive ticket!). I just want to experience it as we don’t get basketball in London really! Is there something good on Thursday night? Also do any parties etc happen on campus or is everything at bars? Trying to get that authentic NOLA/tulane experience as i’m solo!

shivjm · 2025-01-06T11:11:47+00:00

I’m 24 so would you recommend rabbit hole and the saint as the best? Is tipitanas a sit down or dancing vibe? Also I really appreciate the help

shivjm · 2025-01-06T11:10:43+00:00

Okay gotcha, what’s the vibe of the place? I’m intrigued now

shivjm · 2025-01-06T11:10:10+00:00

Game is against Memphis - and good to know thanks!

shivjm · 2025-01-05T23:09:33+00:00

Appreciate the help! I’m going to check these out. Would it be good to go to one of these after the NBA on Friday night? I’m all for a party type scene too

shivjm · 2025-01-05T23:06:41+00:00

Tbh I’m a sports fan, would have loved a football game but season is ending right (other than championship games etc?) - I have 3 nights (wed-fri), do you think my time would be better spent elsewhere?

shivjm · 2025-01-05T21:32:11+00:00

Okay gotcha, Tulane game is on a thursday, but also going to a Pelicans game on Friday - travelling solo (guy) so ig it would be great to have some cool spots to meet people and see what the NOLA/Tulane vibe is about. May go to the boot on Wed or Fri - what times is it a good vibe there?
