I’d Rather Be In New Orleans

Author: Stretch


“Show us your tits!”

New Orleans has set a new World Record for consecutive days of partying and they’re just getting warmed up.

On Sunday night the Saints gave their fans an excuse to party, beating the Colts 31-17 in Super Bowl XLIV. As if the folks in New Orleans needed another excuse to party. Today, fans celebrated with their team at the Super Bowl parade in downtown New Orleans, but the party doesn’t end there…

Tomorrow there are two more parades in NOLA. The first is “Mystic Krewe of Druids” at 6:30pm in Uptown. Soon thereafter “Krewe of Thor” begins at 7:00pm in Metairie. I have no fucking idea what these parades mean, but a party is a party, even if it sounds like a game of Magic the Gathering.

But those two parades are only the beginning…

There are at least three parades every single day in New Orleans until Mardi Gras next Tuesday. Don’t believe me? Check it out for yourself (2010 Mardi Gras Parade Schedule).

The truth is that these people started partying after the Saints beat the Vikings in the NFC Championship Game, which was on Sunday January 24th. That means the fine residents of New Orleans have been partying now for 17 straight days. By the time Mardi Gras happens next week, New Orleans will have been in a perpetual state of partying for a grand total of 23 days of consecutive days.

At this point, I have to imagine there are people in New Orleans right now who don’t even know what planet they’re currently residing on. Can you even imagine partying 24 days in a row? I’ve been on some mean benders, but they last 4-5 days tops, then I spend 48 hours in a cold sweat, shaking and wondering why. I don’t know what the official world record for partying is, but New Orleans has to be giving the record a run for its money.

Oh, and to be clear about the record, I’m not talking about non-alcoholic, festivities type partying, no sir. I’m talking about drink-till-you-piss-your-pants-and-don’t-even-care-that-you-just-passed-out-on-the-street-next-to-a-steaming-pile-of-horse-shit-partying. The real kind, French Quarter style. If you’re wondering what I mean, just take a gander at this guy and you’ll get a sense of what partying French Quarter style actually means.

Congratulations to the Saints for winning Super Bowl XLIV, and congratulations to the residents of New Orleans who have been rocking out with their cocks out since January. Simply amazing.
