know several that should throw in the towel, but their those hardcore "only in New Orleans" apologists who LOVE the city. Like they go to Every Single Festival, got married at Jazz Fest, toddler wears Maple Leaf bar tshirts, house has flooded dozens of times DGAF, etc people
That's weird. Everyone I know in Nola who is hardcore about the city, absolutely hate jazz fest. Hell, I've played at it twice, and never stayed until the end of the night. Only good thing about it, is the shows after the festival of over. And those are usually a rip off.

I moved away 13 years ago and haven't looked back. That said, many of the things that I like about here (Las Vegas area) have little to do with New Orleans:
Centrally located to areas like the Grand Canyon, Zion NP, Cali beaches.
Love the mountains and wide open spaces, especially along AZ and NM.
No hurricanes.
Being a road enthusiast, having both Route 66 and the Pacific Coast Highway within a few hours is very nice.
Having football games starting mid Saturday and Sunday mornings doesn't suck, either.

This is a overly negative comment. I'm not the biggest Jazz Fest fan in the world and don't go every year, but the food selection is awesome and I've seen some really good performances there. They get great talent and you really can see a wide variety of talent walking around in one day (Jazz, rock, R&B, etc.). I think it's really cool seeing all the little street bands outside playing in front of homes while walking to the Jazz Fest too. It's unique. I don't like sweating my arse off, so that's a negative. The prices have gone up too much on tickets due to it getting too big, but the food is reasonably priced and everyone is friendly and seems to be having a food time.
