Yes, super duper predators. In fact they were the very type that need to be brought to heel.

Why would 60-somethings be in the French Quarter on Mardi Gras weekend? Naive much? I'm 32, work in the city, and I sprinted to my car yesterday at 4PM and high-tailed it out of there. I want nothing to do with New Orleans right now.
This.

The old mariners’ axiom is applicable here: Getting caught out in bad weather is acceptable, going out into bad weather is not.

The OP is a bad mariner, for those of you from Alabama.

If they miss the grab with you, they continue to the next person.

If they were going to mug you, they wouldn't have bothered with the "Bump", just followed you to a better mugging spot.





This guy robs

They had their hands in your pocket and didn't take anything? Maybe they just wanted to see if you were happy to see them.

I have no opinion on the veracity of OP’s story, but it was funny to me thinking about muggers having standard operating procedures. Gotta rob by the book!

Haven’t you posted multiple pictures of your EDC set ups on Outdoor Board?

Why even have a concealed carry license if you aren’t going to use it in New Orleans?

I know you’re exaggerating about the situation but I do know two people who were pick pocketed in the quarter yesterday. Fun times. Hooray New Orleans!

You think this is something new in NOLA? Particularly at Mardi Gras time?

why not go back through and put a mouse trap in a jacket pocket. seems you know your surroundings pretty well and could pull that off.
