Going this weekend for the first time. Other than a bunch of drunk wannabe Irishmen, what can we expect and where is a good place to watch the parade? Going to have a few kids with us.

They changed the route this year. I usually walk in the parade but I'm skipping this year. I would suggest watching along St. Charles since that's an option this year.

I'm gonna start at Tracey's until it gets too packed.

Mouth herpes for the women.


Arse will probably be shitfaced in the parade if the new baby hasn't killed him yet.

Isn't it the old route?

Selfishly I wish it had stayed all the way down Mag.

Old route, Best route.

Straight down Magazine was like being shot out of a cannon. Left turns give drunks better reference points.

This is the normal route.

Construction on Louisiana had the route moved for the past few years.

St. Charles probably the best bet with kids. Magazine is a shitshow at end of parade near all the bars.

Is this the one where they throw stuff for the feast?



I got hit with a corned beef one year. The SO got a cabbage. We went home and made a Rueben.

It's only a block from the Magazine part of the route and the "back end" of the block party that starts at Tracey's.

There will only be a few folks there...

I'll be marching along with the other thousand drunk guys in tuxedos.

However, I may be the only one in a green LSU St. Paddy's hat.

Do you mean Annunciation? That was the best route, but it's been a lot of years.

I’d take Baton Rouge overpass St. Pats over Irish Channel any day.
