The hospatatlity is the big key! The volunteers that stepped up took vacation time from their jobs to be information ambassadors all around the area need to be commended! Other S.B. host cities did not do this. Job well done to all the volunteers.

We will get another S.B, !

Who dat!
 
Gulf Coast is doing its part! We had a bunch of Raven fans fly in here today and they were greeted with locals handing out beads and mini- king cakes and "prize" bags donated from the tourist board. Saw it on WLOX today - talk about a bunch of shocked faces!
 
Unless there's a 100-year hurricane, it should be here every 5 years---no if's, and's, but's, we got a new stadium's, or any other silly reasons
 
watching all these videos make me homesick as a ****. luckily in 48 days i'll be back in NOLA :Bandance:


and in no way what so ever will I be sorry for partying
 
I am so proud to be a New Orleanian. I've been working downtown quite a bit this week, and it makes me so happy to see how everyone is enjoying their stay here for the superbowl. We're always hospitable to visitors, but this week has felt even more special in that regard. As bitter as I've felt towards the NFL this year, I can't help but feel overjoyed when I see how the media - and indeed the entire country - has embraced this city in the past week.

What a special place this is.

We had a great day today, walking around the French Quarter and Waldenburg Park for the free concerts. Couldn't ask for better weather and everyone was in a great mood. Tons of Ravens fans along with locals dressed in their Saints gear. Only saw a handful of 49er fans but no big deal on that. Thank god the 49ers made that comeback and kept the Falcons fans from invading as I doubt we would have gone down.
