pictures from the game and new orleans (dialup warning)
Edited on Sun Jan-04-09 04:38 PM by Ava
Bourbon street before the game -


heading out to the game.. i finally had a good excuse to wear my houndstooth dress :P -


we had pretty good seats... i was happy, until 'bama played a crappy game :P -


it was foggy and dreary the day after the game which made for eerie pictures.. i believe god was not amused at alabama's performance at the game :rofl: 0


and a few more shots of nola -



and for KitchenWitch.. i saw this and had to take a pic! -

1. That's great - I'm glad you had a great time, despite...
I was in New Orleans during Thanksgiving, and I remember seeing the Kitchen Witch sign and immediately thought of DU's very own. :P

Great pics!

3. I lost my voice too...
I wanted to watch the game but got invited to a Blazer game.
Great seats, but I lost my voice, we lost to New Orleans (oooh weird), and I missed the last 3 quarters of the Sugar.

4. hollering and yelling for your team is still fun though
even though we lost, i had a blast at the game. when arenas ran back the punt all the way, he was running towards our end of the field.. we were all up and screaming. it was fun.. though of course i'm disappointed by the outcome.

5. Raspy voice is like a badge of honor
Sounds like you've got a good sense of perspective on a tough loss though.

6. indeed it is!
i was very upset after the florida game.. i think that being so upset over the florida game was the reason i wasn't too upset about this one. the season is over anyways.. we've got new players coming in next year and i look forward to seeing the team then.

14. I certainly hope that didn't give you a sour impression of the city
the same thing (actually, an order of magnitude worse) happened to UH there about a year ago (not that I got to go or anything). Then again, if God/ess gave a fig about the outcome of football games at the Dome, S/He wouldn't have had to invent paper bags. :P

Oh well, there aren't any film programs down there that I know of, anyway, plus their largest producer just pled out to tax credit fraud :eyes: (But it'd still be nice if Big-Time Director Ava would bring one of its old mysteries to life someday...)

15. oh no.. it didn't
i love new orleans.. this wasn't my first trip there.

bourbon street isn't my cup of tea at all once it passes about 3pm and starts getting drunk and crazy, but i love the rest of the french quarter!
