advance of a parade. Any of ya'll ever do shite to mess up these people's plans?

I rode down Orleans for the hell of it on Saturday and noticed some areas already have huge areas of spray painted squares for people to reserve their spots. bullshite!

And nothing used to be worse than the guys on St. Charles who would put up a few tens, 25 folding chairs and caution tape all over the place and then leave for the night.

Does it matter if they're the first ones out in the AM anyway?

I never bitch about this because I'm always having too much fun.

Don't forget the 30 ladders in a row all tied together.

Quit being poor and just buy a house on the parade route. Problem solved.

IMO you shouldn't be able to reserve a spot without parking a car there or having a person there 24/7

I don't want to mess up anybody's plans. There's enough space out there for anyone who wants to put in the smallest bit of effort. Hell, the people in back of me normally catch more than I do.

Orleans is the worst street about staking claim to the neutral ground. Those people get militant about their turf.

I wish they'd ban tailgate tents at parades. If you want to put out chairs and tables, fine, but don't block everyone behind you with a tent you don't use during the parade.

I've always felt the rule should be: take as much space as you can stay and defend, if stuff is left unattended it should be tossed into the street.

Yeah I had to shite all over some Tulane bovine princess' plans to lay out folded up chairs marking a huge area and with not a soul around just an hour before the parade.

I fricking hate that shite.
