According to their facebook all eagles fans will be boycotting Pat O's this weekend because Pat O's refuses to give Eagles fans a $1 discount on every drink

Good for you Pat O's. It's funny reading some of the comments like the Eagles fans think their boycott will do damage to Pat O's profits this weekend

Apparently "Bourbon Street Drinkery" has agreed to give them a discount and thats where their "headquarters" will be

Philly fans really are the scum of the earth, I want this win bad, and I want it to be a blowout

But they give it to everyone else? Why do that? Sports is a petty business at times.

No. This Philly group seemingly thinks a bar should give them a $1 discount just because they are bringing their group there. frick em.

Neck where you at Sunday?

they don't give anyone a discount. Green Legion believes that they deserve a discount because of the amount of fans they are bringing

I'll be set up somewhere on Poydras. I'll have music and booze but I'm not sure if I'm bringing the grill or not. FB message me if you want my phone #

If it were your first time in NOLA / Bourbon St., it would be a waste not to stop in to the world famous Pat O's and get a hurricane, especially over something as petty as a $1 discount.

Wow, now that's some top tier stupidity.

Alright. We will probably go somewhere before heading to the tailgate at around 1. Upper level of the dome lot if you want to get a beer before walking in.

Why would Pat O’s want a bunch of the most classless fans in all of sports in their establishment? Seems like a win win, more room for locals

Drinks are always cheaper in the front bar anyway.

Good for Pat O's! So do all saints fans boycott Bourbon Street Drinkery for the reminder of the year. They are now in bed with the enemy.

I don’t blame a bar for giving a discount to any large group but It’s up to them. Pat Os certainly doesn’t need the business and to cheapen themselves.

From an economic and business standpoint it's a really smart play. The owners/management can either take some of the revenue at a discount or you get none of the revenue and potentially lose any future business as well. Problem is, those Eagles fans probably aren't from around here so they don't understand the market. Pat Os doesn't hurt for business. As competitive as the restaurant and bar scene is here in New Orleans, the well-known places don't struggle. They would have been better off attempting this power play with a less popular establishment.

People in New Orleans spend all of their disposable income on leisure activities. Mainly, drinking and eating out.

I've lived in other cities and the restaurant and bar scene is pretty sad. Most of them hurt for business and have to put on a lot of promotions and specials to get people in the door. It's cultural. People in a lot of other cities only eat out on special occasions. My mom and my brother, both new orleanians, for example, eat out probably 5-7 times a week. They are both middle income.

Anyone wearing green should be charged $1 extra on every drink

How about Saints fans act like adults and have a drink wherever they want without boycotting anything?




Also, who’s bringing the piss balloons to Bourbon Street Drinkery?

Everyone gets a dollar back when they bring their hurricane cups back to the bar. I guess they aren’t doing it for Eagles fans.

They probably want to be moved to the front of the line too. Pat O's should tell Eagles fans there will be an admission charge for anyone showing up in Eagles gear.
