Are You Ready for Some Football?

New Orleans ain’t ‘recovering.’ Outside of the Super Dome, it’s never been better for insanely awesome new eats, drinks, live music, ‘cul-chuh,’ and places to nurse ‘dat hangovah.

This is this blog editor’s turf, and we’ll be giving you the insider lowdown closer to the big game. But…New Orleans is slammin’ right now, and the Super Bowl, being held Feb. 3 in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome–drawing about 150,000 visitors to a city of about double that–is ready, willing, and opening it’s blouse. Many of them visitors are going to just call in sick for a week, as Fat Tuesday, Mardi Gras, follows right after, on February 12th! DAN-JER-RUSS, folks!

Be stupid, even with the hotels booked up, to not go. Whore yourself. Here’s a New Orleans Times-Picayune link to what the city’s doing to get ready for this one-two-punch bacchanal: nola.com/superbowl/index.ssf/2013/01/super_bowl_2013_reverberating.html#incart_flyout_living
