When we were in college, there were a few times when our team (Yellow Jackets) played Tulane in NOLA. I only went once and it was definitely a party trip.
Back in the 70’s when I was a Tulane student, the university had an arrangement of sorts with the New Orleans police in which errant Tulane students who had been arrested were released to campus police custody pending a court date. Usually, if the student stayed out of trouble, drunk and disorderly or criminal mischief charges were dropped in return for a minor fine, court costs, and restitution.
