BIG Holiday Thread

My vision of you as a sexual exhibitionist is now destroyed. I may not go on.

There are places to exhibit outside of NO. Drunk chicks taking off their shirts for beads is only mildly amusing, at best. That doesn't even rate as interesting entertainment here, on an average Saturday night. My stuff is way more interesting.

I’d like to, but I’d never remember the experience.

Tourist trap. Mugging. /experience

Yeah, I’d be more interested in the restaurants and the music. And the card rooms.

Restaurants are TOP NOTCH. Can confirm. Worth it if you aren't a dumb college kid going there to get fucked up.

Police are way out of hand. Ask me how I know.

Police in tourist areas are not kind to drifters.

You're not wrong

HEY ! It's Fat Tuesday!

Has anyone been to N'Oleans for Mardi Gras ? I mean besides Kath, we know she has a huge collection of plastic pearls.

I bet Fife has.............. he's a degenerate Libertarian

I've never been to Mardi Gras. I've been to N.O. for a half dozen or so football weekends, my fraternity's national convention while in college, and the Republican national convention while in college as well. I haven't been since Katrina.

The calmest trip, by far, and the one where I got to really enjoy the city the most, was the fraternity convention.

The biggest meat market orgy, by a country mile, was the 1988 GOP convention. OMG there was pussy and booze overload. (I've written here or somewhere about my one dalliance with either national political party or their candidates, which centered around my later undergraduate years and that convention.)

Football, well that's what you think it is on Bourbon St. Stay with your squad, tightly, and have a strong Alpha with you who won't be drunk out of his mind and looking for fights to babysit the group. :goteam: :drunk:

I've got some stories for nuke's podcast about some of those football trips. Fights, talking shit with cops and their horses, ERs, double eye-patches, "we're sorry he didn't make it," that kind of shit.

I imagine Mardi Gras might be a bit too much of amateur hour / open mike night. For those kinds of bead-tiddy-fests, just go to the campground at Talladega the Friday and/or Saturday nights before raceday. No cops or gang-bangers there.

We're going to need to sip whiskey some night.

Don't forget its Valentine's Day...

Nothing good comes from forgetting.

Keep Love Alive!

The wife calls it a Hallmark Holiday................ still expects a present

[K@th]

I like Valentine's Day, but we almost never exchange gifts. Just time together.
