Drove there for a day from Keesler AFB (Biloxi, MS) back in 1976. I can only imagine how much it had changed from then up until Katrina...

I watched the January '03 Fiesta Bowl in a bar in the French Quarter. A great visit in many, many ways.

Odd Mix?

I have a love hate relationship with the town. It can be beautiful and has a wonderful unique history, but it can also be filthy, corrupt and crime ridden.
It's an odd mix of the best and absolute worst at the same time...

Hey, same can be said for my Chicago!
Seriously...
Anyhow, been down to NOLA many times on business. Always enjoyed the town.
My favs: The Palace Cafe & The Napoleon House for dinner.

I went for the 1998 and 1999 Sugar Bowls, then took a year off, and went back with friends for New Years.
I took another year off, and went back with friends for New Years again, promptly flew out to Tempe, and saw the Bucks beat Miami in double OT.
I love New Orleans. I wish the national title game was set on January 1st. There is something to be said for a large amount of people who have all come to drink some adult beverages and have a good time. Oh, and breasts.
p.s. For first time visitors: find Central Grocery in the French Quarter for the original Muffeletta -- and I think it's a requirement to wash it down with root beer.
