They need to re-brand. They do that same stupid dance over & over,

Better yet their needs to be a heel group of cocky over confident douche bags to oppose them.

The only thing funnier than a dude who shits on the stompers is a dude who takes up for them

They’re not that entertaining, and I personally would rather something else for halftime.

But the notion that a group of guys having a good time while not caring what people think about them somehow is a poor reflection on the city of New Orleans is laughable. They’re popular because it’s funny to watch grown men dance like jackasses. Get over yourself.

It was fun a few times in 2010. Now it's old and that shite today was garbage.

Thats the entire point you are missing. Those guys made more than anyone what people think about them

I agree. Their novelty has worn off and I cringe everytime I see them at events.




Get used to it. They aren’t going anywhere. The 610 Stompers are part of the culcha and fabric that makes nola the most unique city in the world.

They're like a lot of parade stuff, it's passing entertainment. It works when it passes you once and that's it. Doesn't mean you want to sit and watch it at length.

It's a bunch of dudes willing to travel, perform in front of large groups of people, and have fun. Stop being a grouch.


Yes I’m sure those guys are having fun. But why is it entertaining to anyone else?

The stompers are just one of those NOLA things that people pretend to love bc it makes them feel so naturally nawlins.

There are some legit miserable fricks in this world like the OP. I’ll never get it.



I'm not sure how pointing out that they are a garbage form of entertainment for major events is being a "miserable frick." Cool on them for getting gigs and having a good time but everyone around us pretty much had the same reaction of "what the frick are we watching?"

Halftime shows always suck so no big deal there but that performance was definitely stupid af.

Wow, 3 pages on the O-T about the Stompers, they must be moving up in the world.

They are fine with me and they raise a ton of money for local non-profits. I also like that it works in part because its in New Orleans and Mardi Gras parades are so much fun, not sure how well it would work anywhere else.
