Why can Sugarland, Corpus Christi, Biloxi, Round Rock, El Paso, Amarillo, Frisco, OKC, Jacksonville, etc all succeed and New Orleans can’t? The problem is a place like NO could thrive off tourists with a downtown ballpark and some effort to make it safe and family friendly.

There’s regularly organized groups at games I go to that are in town for conventions. I guess they aren’t technically tourists, but they’re out of town dollars coming your way.

There’s plenty of people in various FB groups I’m in that plan baseball trips. Again, it’s not the top draw, but if you combine the lure of the Quarter with a ballpark, it could work.
