I'd try again.

See a dude run from one side of Bourbon, cross the street, do a crowhop and smoke some random guy right in the face and keep on running towards Canal.

Back in 2020 when the lockdowns first happened, my job said I had to cover the New Orleans East route because the driver just quit. I was driving through the 7th Ward on my way to New Orleans East and I saw a homeless man eating out another man’s booty on the corner.


Luckily, they switched my route back to Baton Rouge a few weeks later and I felt bad for the new guy who took over that route. He quit three days later saying frick all that lol.

My top 5:

1) I was on a Bourbon balcony right above the Thanksgiving weekend shooting in 2016.

2) I saw a lady get shot on N. Robertson on the front lawn of a house right across the street from the 5th district police station.

3) An Ohio State fan got his arse kicked for trying to ride one of the buggy horses by the Cathedral the year they beat Bama in the Dome. Police just kind of stood there and let street justice do it’s thang.

4) Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie just chilling eating a Central Geocery muff and no one bothering them. That stood out. They were talking to people around them but it was just normal conversation. Angelina told my wife she loved her sandals.

5) Eli Manning taking his shirt off in Fat Harry’s the summer of 2004. The bouncers didn’t do much but tell him he’s the only one without a shirt and they can’t have that. Eli looked right at them and said “it’s fricking hot.”

Did you ask her husband what was in the box?

Working at LSU/charity when a trauma came in for a 4 year old who had accidentally been shot in the neck. Kid gets wheeled in by EMS and is just sitting up calm as can be. Most of the adults in the room looked more upset about it than this kid. Just super stoic, no crying or anything. Bullet miraculously missed every vital structure in an area that has a lot of vital structures.

Also had several trannies come in with bad lacerations after a fight at a gay bar against some rival lesbians. That was my first experience dealing with a trans patient and I’ve never been able to get the picture of butch lesbians fighting lady boys, both sides armed with broken beer bottles, out of my head.

Last one was a Vietnamese guy who came in with chest pain. They tried treating him at home with some traditional medicine, including coining, so his whole chest was just streaked with quarter-diameter bruises and areas where they used suction cups. They should have skipped the coining- He was having a massive heart attack.

1) Shooting at our hotel (Renaissance Nola) this very weekend last year across from Lucy’s off Tchoupitoulas.

2) Bum on the corner of Baronne and Poydras dropping his drawers and taking a shite in the middle of broad daylight.

3) Some BBW with arse implants clapping her cheeks in a thong in front of one of the strip clubs on Bourbon

4) Gay couple giving each other head in the bathroom at Pat O’s.

5) This is more sincere/sad but the water marks on the houses and structures post-Katrina. Seeing them in person really was a shock and put things into perspective.

1. Gutter punk spreading his cheeks and taking a massive shite directly in front of the window at Doris Metropolitan. Cannot unsee that.

2. Huge black woman dropping her pants and taking a horse-like piss on Canal Street during the lunch hour.
