    Great Customer Service

    I tested positive for Covid one day before I was scheduled to see a show I had been looking forward to for a long time. I called support and at 10 pm on a Monday they were able to transfer my tickets to the same seats the following month, to a date of my choosing. They coordinated with the box office and sent me follow ups every step of the way. Thanks Ash at Seat Geek!

About the Sugar Bowl Tickets

The Sugar Bowl is one of the oldest and most prestigious college football bowl games, first played on January 1, 1935, in New Orleans, Louisiana. It was created to showcase Southern football and rival the Rose Bowl in prominence. Initially held at Tulane Stadium, the Sugar Bowl moved to the iconic Louisiana Superdome (now the Caesars Superdome) in 1975, providing a state-of-the-art venue for the annual matchup. Over the years, the Sugar Bowl has become synonymous with college football excellence and Southern hospitality, consistently hosting high-profile games.

Traditionally, the Sugar Bowl featured a matchup between the champions of the Southeastern Conference (SEC) and other top-ranked teams. Since 2014, it has been part of the College Football Playoff (CFP) rotation as one of the "New Year's Six" bowls, occasionally serving as a CFP semifinal game. Its location in New Orleans adds to its allure, with the vibrant city providing a festive backdrop for fans. The Sugar Bowl's longstanding relationship with the SEC has made it a stage for some of the conference's most memorable performances.

The Sugar Bowl has produced many iconic moments in college football history. One of the most memorable games was the 1973 matchup between Notre Dame and Alabama, which determined the national champion. Notre Dame emerged victorious in a hard-fought 24-23 game, solidifying its place in college football history. In 2000, Florida State defeated Virginia Tech in the Sugar Bowl to claim the BCS National Championship, with Heisman winner Chris Weinke leading the Seminoles. Another standout game came in 2015 when Ohio State upset Alabama 42-35 in a CFP semifinal, propelling the Buckeyes to a national title.

Beyond the action on the field, the Sugar Bowl is deeply ingrained in the fabric of New Orleans culture and college football tradition. Its ability to adapt to the changing landscape of the sport, from its SEC roots to its role in the CFP, has ensured its enduring significance. The game continues to attract top teams, electrifying moments, and legions of fans, making it a centerpiece of the college football postseason. Its combination of rich history, competitive matchups, and vibrant setting guarantees the Sugar Bowl’s status as a cornerstone of the sport.
