Default Super Bowl, New Orleans, Need Help

I am a die hard Niners fan, I purchased my tickets to the super bowl after the Niners won today. 1 big problem, all hotels are booked in New Orleans. Question, and this is a long shot, any jeepers own a hotel in or near New Orleans?

keep looking, what happens is pats fans and falcons fans prob booked them in case they made it so they had them, now they will cancel. look every few hours. Plus people will cancel beause I lot of people book 3 or 4 diff hotels and then narrow them down.

Try looking in Baton Rouge. It isn't that bad of a drive.

Call, don't go by what their online system shows. Lots of hotels have some rooms open for callers.

Last year here in Indianapolis, many people chose to rent their homes or apartments during the week of the super bowl. Not sure if that is an option for you.

I'm a Ravens fan and have a couple tickets to New Orleans... We plan on flying into Gulf Port, Mississippi and staying with friends... its a 45 min drive to the Stadium from their house and I bet flights and hotels are way cheaper over in that area.
