Monroe has a Regional Airport (MLU), but if you're talking major airport it's Dallas. Shreveport, Jackson (MS), and Little Rock (AR) are closer and have bigger airports than Monroe.

Gospeeder Posted June 21, 2017 Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 Nice stadium. Sensible and not over the top like some of the others we have seen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's too expensive to fly into the smaller, regional airports, and the only affordable airport is almost five hours away from the venue. Yep, we're kinda on an island... have you contacted anybody at West Monroe about helping with the travel? I know we paid Midland Lee pretty handsomely (they could have easily flown in but chose not too and pocket the $$$). Not real sure how much we paid Cocoa but with 5,000 season ticket holders there's a pretty hefty gate to split as well. Noxubee County (MS) isn't that close (on the Alabama border) and they are coming this year... heck, John Ehret (LA) is coming and they are almost 5 hours away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reb72 Posted June 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2017 Remember too we just finished a 2 year deal playing a Memphis (TN) school... and they traveled to West Monroe both years--we have the bucks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
