NOLA Super Bowl Twitter Praise thread

i enjoy reading all the feedback given by the people visiting for the Super Bowl. Post any tweets, pics or articles here about restaurants or anything New Orleans that people are enjoying. Here are a few Ive came across.
Mike Pereira (NFL referee)
Scott Van Pelt (ESPN personality)
Ryen Russillo (ESPN personality)
Trent Dilfer
Neil Patrick Harris(Doogie Houser)
Eric Asher on the radio today was totally gushing about the media party at Mardi Gras World last night. 60 of the city's best restaurants, local music (big sam's funky nation, amanda shaw, Doopsie, Dan Aykroid). Said the city has really rolled out the red carpet for the media, of course so they talk great about the city. I cant wait to get out there later this week.

ive read a lot of "that was the best _____ ive ever had".
even some are going to "tourist traps". Just think if they tapped the really great places.

Love reading this kind of stuff.

cool idea Lester.
:jealous:
Eric must be going nuts with all this food!
I've heard the Mad Dog radio guys say the same thing about being treated well, although they lamented that nobody was coming out to radio row.
I'm gonna make my way down there on Saturday to check everything out.

Great thread Lester. Kicking myself for not going to Maple Leaf last night. I really haven't read or heard anything negative yet.

Asher also said they had a Riverboat take the media from Mardi Gras world back to the FQ so no one had to drive. Thought that was pretty cool.

Cool thread, I love reading about people's experiences of the city. Why don't you start one of these on the OT?
Posted on 1/30/13 at 1:05 pm to OldSouth
because then it would turn into a nola vs. br or north la. vs. south la. hate thread

Yep.
The rednecks would shite all over the thread and ruin what was supposed to be a good thing.

I enjoyed this one from Scott Van Pelt

Van Pelt has probably said "Rebirth" and "maple leaf" 50x's the last 3 days
