I've never understood this Canadien whisky preference for people from NOLA. Is it the purple and yellow baggie that it comes in?

I'm not from NOLA and I prefer it. I prefer Canadian whiskey in general.

I like crown as well, but my intestines do not. Makers is what I normally drink now when I drink whiskey.

they prefer name brands that they believe elevates their status. "Crown & Coke" (loud enough that other people can hear, then looks around to see which girl believes he's rich now all of a sudden)

I prefer bourbon. I'm not a fan of Crown. You don't see many people drinking it in my area. I never thought about it before but it does seem to be more popular down south.

IMO, 90% of their success comes from this

What a strange discussion. Not sure why you think this is a N.O. thing.
Talk to the folks in the business and they will tell you that Texas people drink a shite load of crown. Much more than any other state I think.

My friends from Baton Rouge and old college buddies from all over the state drink crown like crazy.

Your premise is incorrect. If you have any evidence whatsoever to support it, I'd be interested to see it.

Crown Royal sucks arse, but it's pretty popular all over the South.
