Let’s meet up at 3 am for a hand grenade and head down Rampart and see where the last bit of night takes us.

You do know there is a lot to the city other than the French Quarter?
Heaven forbid y’all figure out bars and restaurants exist in other parts of the city.

Im telling yall, the Essence crowd really isn't bad at all. I don't know why this board acts like its such a horrible event.

It’s not bad. Lots of peace loving civilians definitely not out to start trouble. I predict no shootings this weekend. Go have fun watching all that fine black booty.

Yeah this event brings in wealthy black people who drop a ton of money on the city without causing any problems.

Completely different crowd than the bayou classic.

Isn't this the time of year when bars and restaurants in NOLA "close for repairs?"

No idea.

Left for Biloxi Friday morning, coming back Tuesday evening.

I do this every ‘Essence Weekend’ and I suggest you do the same.
