"Your best vacation memories start in Warwick!"

I hate to think of all the suckers who get off a plane in RI and fall for this one.

 

The first trip of many trips to Bourbon Street.

 

The team buses head by.

 

A slightly nicer ride - a Lamborghini truck? You don't see those everyday.

 

A lovely shot of the group at Pat O'Brien's.

 

Bourbon Street packed on New Year's Eve.

 

Evan's looking good.

 

I was actually taking a picture of their camera - the great Sony DSC-T1 Cyber-shot.

 

Evan now has Stuart Scott eyes. Boo-Yeah!

 

From up on a balcony, just about midnight.

 

Happy New Year.

 

Me holding a dog (possibly dead?) and a penalty flag. I love this picture.

 

The crowd below. This happens to me everywhere I go.

 

Evan and Katie playing the ice water game. Good times.

 

A woman gives her imaginary friend a push down the street.

 

This was unfortunate. In the middle of Craig's karaoke show Iowa scored the game winning TD to beat LSU.

So the crowd was pretty much ignoring his horrible singing. "I GAWT MY FFFIRST REAL THIX STRING!!"

 

This one's for Ant, cuuuuuuuuuz.

 

A cruise ship on the Mississippi.

 

Off to the pep rally.

 

Place was packed.

 

This man is dedicated!

 

Back to Bourbon Street, Craig had the whole street closed down watching him dance. It was hilarious.

 

Ryan was enjoying it.

 

He was dancing for a good 3-4 hours.

 

Evan and the Captain.

 

Evan and someone whose face looks a lot like the Captain's. Scroll up, you'll see the resemblance.

 

Arrrrrrgh!

 

Evan just can't help himself.

 

Whit's turn.

 

Back out on the street.

 

The girls having fun.

 

"Hey, you wanna go sit on a sidewalk with me for three hours?"

"Yeah, I think I'd like that."

 

The best way to eat apple pie.

 

This is actually what the street was looking like.

 

One more random Bourbon Street picture.

 

Game day started off at Razoo's.

 

Still at Razoo's.

 

Playtime's over - time to take care of business.

 

The view from the cheap seats. Not that bad actually.

 

The pre-game show.

 

The VT section.

 

Auburn side.

 

Curt playing with his breathalyzer. I think it read .35.

 

Back to the game.

 

Past Sugar Bowl match-ups - the worst halftime show ever.

 

War Eagle.

 

This is the 80-yard TD pass in the 4th quarter.

 

Came up just short.
