I truly believe this is a job for Cowboy Kip. Not just the hat.
He needs to go full bore. Ride into a national press conference on horse back with double six guns and declare "there is a new Sheriff in town and everyone needs to move along. Nothing to see here!"
The nation would be so stunned that they would be unable to protest further. Kip becomes an icon and Hillary or Trump appoints him the next Attorney General of the United States.
PROFIT BEEYOTCHES!

I want to laugh but it looks like he enjoys himself and I know he loves the city and he doesn't seem to be crooked.

Other than being an unabashed philanderer, he's really not known for corruption. He generally race-baits exceedingly rarely, typically is very pro business, and his biggest flaw seems to be that he pushes for boondoggle dream projects like Downtown Alive. When your biggest flaw is that you dream too big when trying to bring economic prosperity to your town, you're probably doing a lot right.
He would have been the GOAT Lt. Governor.

At the end of the day, he's been a decent mayor. The council and school board are and always have been a wreck. Kip is basically steering a broken ship and doing what he can.

Kip's costumes are the best part of any Baton Rouge emergency.

Hard to decide between the Cowboy or the Pimp, Kit

Agreed though I'd trade him in for someone who could fix traffic.

There is little to nothing a Baton Rouge Mayor could do to fix Baton Rouge traffic. The state or the feds have big enough budgets to fix Baton Rouge traffic. City of Baton Rouge won't make a dent.

I love me some Kip so I have to tell this CSB.
Right around Mardi Gras time, I am at Lucy's downtown sitting at the outside bar facing the street. It is about 10am. Super Kip comes rolling out the door visibly lit and crosses the street where he attempts several times to get into the back seat of a black car. The door is locked so he starts banging on the window. Problem being that it isn't his car. The guy driving jumps out with the obvious intent of kicking some arse. Simultaneously, Kip's driver (parked just behind this car) jumps out and grabs Kip to take him over to the correct car.
They all get back in their cars and Kip's Lincoln drives away. Guy sitting next to me, from Ohio, says "What was that?" I look up from my drink and say "Oh, that was our Mayor."

Best part of the story, right there.
If more politicians stayed drunk the country'd be better off, Jack.

Here's a story from my dad. Before Kip ran for mayor, when he was a state rep, he gate-crashed a Halloween Masquarade at the country club of Louisiana. Everyone is dressed in ball gowns and Kip busts in in a KKK hood and yells "Where all da white women at?" Everyone just looks at him stunned while my dad dies laughing in the corner. He then goes up to my dad and says "I'm not under-dressed! This isn't just some bed sheet, this is real satin! Feel this!"
When he was in the leg, he backed a bill for the chem lobby, going against the whole of the black caucus. When he showed up to speak in favor of the bill, he showed up in a bright pinstripe suit with a top hat and cane. When someone asked him what he was wearing, he replied "They're accusing me of pimpin' this bill, so I thought I might as well look the part!"

I hope all of this is true! I already love the guy. He comes to our high school from time to time, and I seem to run into him at the Farmers Market every time I go. He is always looking to have a conversation. He walked into my classroom one day and talked with many of my students about what they were reading. He's really a great guy!

Does he do this all the time or is it just a holiday-type thing?
When I first started seeing the BR mayor in all those different costumes, I thought he was off his rocker. But after hearing your stories about him, he just seems like a guy that knows how to have a good time.

So you rather not have a mayor?
