The real party is going to be in New Orleans. One minute after the Saints win, almost every Saints fan in that stadium is going to wish they were in the French Quarter for the celebration. It will be a party like no one has ever seen before. It will be a raw, passionate and authentic outpouring of joy and happiness from several hundred thousand people who actually love the Saints, unlike what it will feel like in Miami. No wonder some charter flights are going to leave two hours after the game so the passengers can get back for the celebration.

If you still want to go to the game, wait until next week when the online sites like Stubhub start dropping their prices. You should find a ticket under a thousand. Then find a reasonably priced hotel an hour north of Miami. Good luck.

Its a bit of an exaggeration to say people are only there to be seen. However it is certainly a different crowd than a game at the superdome. The crowd will be football fans, almost all of them will have a team they are cheering for, however many of them are cheering for the 2 large they have on the game.

It's an older crowd (not sure if that's good or bad for you) and there is tons to do the week of, and day of the game. However once the game is over, you'd probably wish you were in new orleans. There won't be tons to do except go for a beer then go home.

However it is a very unique experience, good to do once, I suppose, but go because you have a few days of things planned, not just the 3 hours. If all you care about is the 3 hours, then just go to bourbon.

As for ticket prices, not many buyers go to the stadium looking for tickets, however tons go to sell tickets. Compared to websites, it's very much a buying market ... if you call paying a grand for a ticket a buyers market.
