Super Bowl

[SeanRyan]

I have just been informed by my editor that the credentials for Super Bowl have been granted. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] But I will have to be up in the stands again this year with Special photo pass. (I can't see whats so special about it!.) We of course asked for a field photo, but because of increased security, the NFL are keeping the amount of field photo passes down to a bare minimum.
My question to the rest of you guys is, of those of you who requsted, how many of you have been given a Special credential instead of a field one. Or not granted credentials at all.
Also we were also told that the NFL will be putting photos from the game on the web that may be downloaded free whilst the game is on.

And last but not least, can anyone recommend places to eat and drink in N.O
regards

Sean (I hope my 1D's turn up!)

Hi Sean -- H'do you get a Pass for Superbowl from Hampshire England !!!! Anyway when you get back please post your experiences
Good Luck and have fun -- BTW Sateside the 1D's are around 2000GBP cheaper than the projected UK price if you have to buy your own gear.
N.O is absolutely full of decent eating places -- cajun stuff as well is fantastic -- It's probably the one place in the States where the Yellow Arches are treated as swae words. Food is mega cheap there as well but if you haven't eaten in a decent restaurant Stateside before remember the portions you get could be large enough for a whole family !!
Again Jealous

Cheers
A very Jealous --R !!!!!!!!!!!!

Irene's Cuisine is off the Quarter. Its a little pricey, and it looks like a hole in the wall, but it is great. Get there early or you will be waiting for hours. The roast duck is wonderful.

New Orleans is the best city in the world. There are so many great places to drink...just walk outdoors and pick'em. Although I will tell you to stay away from the drinkeries on Bourbon St...they are a headache waiting to happen.

Have fun.
