Somebody probably had those weird green strawberries that are supposedly ripe. That shite really pisses me off, so I can at least sympathize.

Isn’t this the second year in a row?


Yes last year was on hickory street a block away from the grounds. The police station was actually hit by bullets. This year someone was shot on the grounds

This isn't the first time this has happened there... Isn't it like 3 years in a row?

Anyone know anything?
I know I won’t be in the crowd there ever again.

It used to be so nice up until a certain demographic started attending


I went about 16-17 years ago and it was very dark then. Never been back.

They specifically put it on the same weekend as the French quarter fest to cut down attendants, that's what i was told anyways.

Used to be nice years ago. (Maybe decades). Now won’t go. Typical reason.

Just saw Facebook video of them loading up the victim on side by side and taking him off the grounds. Looks like he got shot in the midsection from the bandage on him and he was moving around pretty good even though he was strapped down and yeah it was the usual demographics for these situations

Strawberry Festival


Went for the first time in about 15 years last year.

It was much different than I remember it. IYKYK.

Trash. Both sides. Louisiana just can’t have nice things.
