We’re about 2 hours to game time. Kick-off is set for 7:47 p.m. here at the Superdome in New Orleans.

We caught the media bus from the hotel out here about two hours ago, and have been shooting some fan stuff outside the dome, where it’s probably in the low 50s but a strong wind adds a nice bite. Inside it’s probably in the mid-60s or so.

The work room is in the bowels of the stadium, right off to the side of the field. High-speed internet connections for all!

There are quite a bit of photogs milling around. 400mm 2.8 lenses all over the place. AP has a whole stable of photogs. Looks like it’ll be a zoo out on the field.

We’ve been told that we have to kneel “as a courtesy to fans in the lower seats.” Of course, I left my kneepads in Honolulu. I “borrowed” a bath towel from the hotel to use as some kind of cushion.

Okay… gonna go hunt for some food now…
