Sugar Bowl Tickets
BCS Championship Tickets
Sugar Bowl Tickets and BCS Championship tickets are a great way to double dip your way into the new year. Picture yourself in new Orleans, one of the great party cities in the Unites States, and you’re going to bookend about 10 days of fun with tickets to both the Sugar Bowl on Jan 3rd, watching Michigan vs Virginia Tech, then on Jan 9th, you pick up your BCS Championship tickets and head for the Superdome to see one of the great rematches of the college football season as the LSU Tigers and Alabama Crimson Tide face off to decide the title.
In between games, as if the Sugar Bowl and BCS Championship aren’t enough, you get to spend a week in New Orleans. What to do?
1) Head to Drago’s and get the grilled oysters. Believe me they can’t be beat.
2) Enjoy the night life in the French Quarter. Pat O’s is the place.
3) Cast the dice at Harrah’s Casino.
4) Take a trip across Lake Pontchartrain to Slidell and do the Swamp Tour. On your way back stop at Peck’s Seafood and enjoy the gumbo and a Shrimp PoBoy.
5) New Orleans Hornets Tickets are available for games against the 76ers on Jan 4th, and the Denver Nuggets on the 6th.
Starting to get the picture? This could be the best week of vacation you ever had.

Ohio State Buckeyes Tickets
Ohio State Buckeyes tickets have traditionally been tops in college football tickets. The Buckeyes have been successful and prominent, bringing acclaim to the university. I can remember many a bowl game watching the Buckeyes take apart one or another opponent. Those were the highs that came along with Ohio State Buckeyes tickets.
Then came the lows and they’ve been coming one right after another. First and foremost was the disgraceful discovery of players trading their Ohio State memorabilia for tattoos. How stupid can you be? But the real kicker came when it was discovered that Jim Tressell, the man who really made Ohio State Buckeyes tickets into treasures, knew about the whole thing and tried to kick it under the rug. Now, it has been announced that the Ohio State Buckeyes have been banned from any College Bowl Game appearance for one year, limited scholarships, and a probation period. Such is the legacy of Jim Tressell.
But more ups are on the way for Buckeyes ticket holders. The hiring of Urban Meyer is a start in the right direction. It’s hoped that Meyer is now fully healthy and rested after his hiatus and can lead the Ohio State Buckeyes to a BCS National Championship the way he did Florida. After a couple of years operating under restrictions, Meyer has the chance to re-build and esteemed college football program and I believe he will. So don’t lose faith Ohio State fans, your Buckeyes tickets, though operating under a cloud, will soon be in the light again.
