Sugar Bowl delayed at least one day.
- Thread starter The Spin Meister
- Start date
Why not with 10 people dead by what appears to have been an attack by a driver that crossed the border two days. And they have ID’d accomplices. Serious crap and they must have other knowledge/concern.
I’m surprised there’s never been a serious stadium attack. Have a shady vendor drive a truck filled with weapons into the bowels of a stadium. A couple “fans” make their way down there and get strapped up
Honestly, just move it. Georgia vs Notre Dame--Texans are on the road this week. NRG could be ready tomorrow.
Teams can go and play anywhere. Fans would be screwed, though, as always. TV needs their money… they don’t care how many are in the stands.
Because he had a couple IEDs and appears to have been working with 4-5 other people.

Screws the fans as most had flights go fly home either late tonight or tomorrow. And getting a hotel room for another night may be difficult and expensive.
But safety has to tip priority. And if they find a larger ring with multiple attacks planned the just might move the game to a different city altogether.
It appears the truck crossed the border several days ago. It was a rental, and he was not in it.
It would help if you didn't rely on incorrect information that was provided to you by the alt media that was supposed to protect you from the nonexistent incorrect information from the traditional media.

This isn't official--nothing from ESPN or the Sugar Bowl yet--doesn't mean it's not true but this is still, so far, a rumor
Sources: Sugar Bowl ppd. following truck attack
The College Football Playoff quarterfinal between Georgia and Notre Dame has been postponed, sources told ESPN, following a deadly pickup truck attack in New Orleans.
I said the same thing to my kids. Disappointed because we wanted to watch the games but I’m ok for them to postpone that game until Saturday.
Totally makes sense. Recent trends have shown that ISIS has transitioned and shown a greater intrest to attacks targeting stadiums , concerts and other mass gatherings in the US. The concern of a multiple phased attack carried out at diffrent times and locations has to be considered. Also as mentioned above with the potential of other actors that may be at large or if there is Intel on any cell activity or any other variables. Just a truly sad and terrible day...
First I heard of 4-5 accomplices. I did hear an air bnb that was supposedly related to this guy burned down this morning. It wouldn’t surprise me he had others helping him and covering their tracks.
Yeah, I was really looking forward to 3 games but...Friday makes sense if they work around the NFL. Tomorrow feels like it could be rushed.
That's what I was thinking too. I'm sure the FBI and other agencies have intelligence to justify this decision, and better safe than sorry, but it seems when we give into them the bad guys win.
Lots of unanswered questions so far. If he’s from Texas, why attack New Orleans? He passed up bigger targets in Dallas and Houston. Why attack at 3:30 am? If you want max casualties and max PR you do it at midnight when many more people are there. I read somewhere that the barriers that protect Bourbon St were down allowing his car access. Why were they down (if true)?
There is sill investigation going on regarding how the vehicle was obtained and why it was in Mexico two days ago. Speculation was mentioned it may have been rented from a third party on one of those sites where the owners rent out their vehicles (don't know the names).
The warning letter to the police said something about “shizholians”
That’s all we have to go on at this time
the barrier system blocking Bourbon street is broken and they are repairing it. So they had police vehicle parked in street in intersection. But the guy drove up on side walk and around parked police car. Police at the big press conference seemed surprised that they drive on side walks and were not prepared for that to happen
Now there are reports that LE has videos of three men and a woman planting bombs. That is why they delayed the game.
Of course, I don’t know ‘What is a Wonan’🤷🏻♀️
