Roundtrip Gameday Transportation – Saturday Nov. 23d

For those Aggies attending the game or wanting to tailgate at Tiger Stadium without the hassle of traffic and parking, the New Orleans A&M Club has arranged to provide roundtrip motor coach transportation from New Orleans.  The coaches will be escorted by Baton Rouge police directly to the bus staging area at Tiger Stadium.  Departure time is expected to be 4 to 5 hours before kickoff, allowing ample time for tailgating.  Staging and pickup will be at the DoubleTree Hotel, 300 Canal St., New Orleans, 70130.

In advance of the designated departure time, bus riders will secure a name tag from NOLA Club staff at the DoubleTree for admission onto one of the buses.  Liquid refreshments will be provided on each bus.

Riders are entitled to participate in a catered tailgate hosted by the Baton Rouge A&M Club.  The New Orleans A&M Club will make a donation to the Baton Rouge club for each bus rider to defray their costs and assist with their charitable endeavors.

Ticket cost is $125/adult and $75/child under 18 years old.  Reservations and payment can be made online via visiting http://nolaags.info/gigem/ Check to see who is attending the tailgate party?
