Draft Parties
 

Any of you Saints fans have big plans for the weekend? Have any of you ever attended the local draft parties ? Every year when i listen to the draft on 870 am they say they're live at one place or another. I am seriously considering attending this year , if I can find out where it will be held. Would be nice to have a Black and Gold.net draft party ! What do you guys think ? :P

Draft Parties
 

DraftFest 2003 will be held on Saturday, April 26 from 10 am to 6 pm at the soccer complex adjacent to the Saints training facility in Metairie (located at 5800 Airline Drive). Admission is free for all fans, and gates will open one hour before the NFL Draft’s 11 am start time.


WWL Radio 870-AM will broadcast live beginning at 9 am. The Saints broadcast team of Jim Henderson, Hokie Gajan and Kenny Wilkerson, along with analyst Mike Detilier and WWL\'s Buddy D, will be joined on the air by Saints coaches, front office personnel along with current and former Saints players.


All fans in attendance will receive a “pick ‘em� draft tracker sheet, while activity booths, as well as the Saints Experience, will be open for patrons, free of charge. The Saintsations will also be on hand, adding to the event’s festivities.


In addition to the DraftFest activities, fans can get personal assistance from the Saints ticket office in selecting the perfect tickets for the 2003 season. Exclusive draft day merchandise will also be available for the first time at DraftFest.
