My wife, as well as another couple, are looking for the best places within a short day's drive (1-7 hrs) from BR to go on a New Years trip for three or so days.

Of course, there's New Orleans, but I was thinking something that I haven't been to a thousand times.

Any ideas?

Y'all could come to Bay St. Louis, see if the Bay Town Inn has rooms, and frick off. It'll be fun.

We went to Dallas one year for New Years and it was awesome!
Went to "deep ellum"(sp?) the place where all the bars and night clubs are. For 12:00 we were at The Green Room (sp?) and they played the LSU pregame song at 12:00 a.m. Was so much fun.

I suggested this but everyone thought it might be too trashy.

ETA: NO OFFENSE TO YOUR HOMETOWN. I never said I thought it was trashy.

Fairgrounds in NOLA to watch the ponies. Will do this every year from now on. Great way to watch the games and have some fun.

Live music in Jackson Square with a gumbo pot drop from Jax brewery at midnight.
Bring a bottle of champagne and watch fireworks on the levee while the orchestra plays near the aquarium.
Heavy police presence, so we've never had any problems
