Am I crazy for considering making a pit stop (already traveling from FL to WA) with a 6yo in tow for this game and the festivities?  Thinking about spending one night there, I guess - maybe the 30th.

I'm glad to know about the French donuts or whatever, but who has a number for a reputable coke dealer in the area?
I once blew clove smoke in a guy's face that cut in front of me in the line to KJ's.

Not at all. Daytime in FQ is perfectly tame. There are other things to do besides drink. I'm spending three nights in town for the game and I don't drink.

It was pretty good but honestly if I had a stade app, its features would be less about the stade's history and more about how the new lights they put in kinda remind me of alien bugs from Men In Black.

That too, is a really good idea for an app

So there are also tons of non-booze things to do in New Orleans if you want to bring the kids or if you are sobes mcgrobes.

A) After raising my seven beautiful children in New Orleans for a span of the last 22 years, I have the playground scene on lock, AMA

B) The parks here are increds and you can take the streetcar to both of te best ones. Audubon Park is on St. Charles across from Tulane and Loyola, and is accessible by the green streetcar line. Perfect for an easy naturey walk. The red streetcar line accesses City Park, which is huge and has tons of gorgeous scenery AND a Cafe du Monde AND a bunch of sweet playgrounds AND an old stade where The Beatles once played AND an amaze nighttime Christmas display called Christmas in the Oaks.

C) Trampoline parks. You may be surprised to learn that for a city as small as New Orleans, there are three in the greater NOLA area  :cool:

Unless you just really really like to get views from high elevations, I'd skip the Vue New Orleans. Maybe kids would like it as they have interactive things and history of new Orleans stuff but didn't do much for me

there is a Cafe du Monde in MSY if you think you absolutely have to have it, almost no line usually.

FYI The National World War 2 museum will be open on new years day. When I was in NawLeans 4 years ago I decided to spend an afternoon there to check it out and barely got through half the museum in 4 hours, its incredible if you are into WW2 stuff.

Will definitely be going again on NYD wearing a KSU KATZ 2022 Sugar Bowl champs T-Shirt.

I had the same experience. Felt like I was there most of the day, but ended up just walking through the last half because there was just too much to take in.

The WWII museum is amazing. Go, and do as much of it as you can. I recommend blocking off minimum 4 hours if not 6. Sounds insane but if you’re into history it’s worth it. I like to start with the 4-D experience narrated by Tom Hanks to lay a bse. I haven’t been in a few years to see the new addition, but at least a few years ago, this movie is almost entirely Pacific theater. So if you’re expecting a bunch of Holocaust and Normandy’y stuff, it’s not that. I mean sure that makes a dece appearance, but it’s heavy on Pacific.

Can’t speak to their margs but their food is trash.

Everyone should go to the WW2 museum - it's an amazing facility.

But... their approach to telling what happened is very rah-rah America and I found that a bit off-putting. I was there a few weeks ago (after having not been for about 10 years when they were transitioning from being the D-Day museum) and I'm walking by a video in one of the galleries and the hyped-up narrator says something like, "And then the American WW2 aces gunned down the Japanese and added more kills to their tallies!" This wasn't an old timey video - it was done when they did the expansion in the last few years and was too over the top. I immediately thought of Team America ("America Eff Yeah!").

That, in a nutshell, is indicative of their approach to telling the WW2 story. It's a very deliberate choice and they have executed on that choice very well. But, it's a stark contrast to other museums - the WWI museum in KC or the newly renovated Truman Museum are good local examples - which take a more contemplative approach and even challenge/question many of the decisions made - both by the U.S. and other nations.

It looks like a badder chipotle.

Hard to find any good margaritas so maybe they aren't that great but when I am needing one that's the best I've found

I thought it ws great. 3.5 tacos.

But then again, I think everything cf3 does is great, not the least of which is his stade app.
