ETA: Starbucks and Subway draw vastly different crowds.


I've never noticed a Subway ANYWHERE that draws a "crowd."

It's a place people run into get a bad sandwich and leave.

Seems such a goofy battle to celebrate a victory over.

The clientele of an overpriced coffee shop and a cheap as shite sandwich shop are different.

Not effectively. Hey, but enjoy the great "victory" over free commerce.

I'm not celebrating anything, I don't even live in New Orleans anymore

I can just see why someone would want to keep a shitty chain sandwich shop away from Magazine street if possible.

Another reason against is that once you go in a Subway you’re stuck with that arse-smell on your clothes for the rest of the day.

Don’t nobody wanna smell dat.

I wonder f it were a Jimmy Johns would there be opposition.

Or is this just residents thinking a James Beard chef is waiting to open a sandwich shop on that stretch.

The one that is there or a second location? Don't follow that area closely.
