walk down Bourbon Street

2001 and 2006.

Highly recommended.

My favorite moment occurred in while I was spending New Year’s Eve 2006 there with friends and a few hard-core religious folks. People were throwing down beads and dancing… and a dude was dressed as a nun, peeing over the side of a balcony. Ha.

Good times, good times…

full of strip clubs and noisy bars.
try some of the other places in the Quarter, or Frenchman’s Street area instead.

Went after the hurricane. I can’t say about before, but after it is plenty great. Don’t go if you are bothered by sex-type clubs, though, since they’re everywhere. It is entertaining they way they try to yank you in, tho.

i went before Katrina…off season so it wasn’t totalled packed…it was great, stayed in a nice hotel on Rue Dauphine a coupla blocks off Bourbon…i would love to go again and see if it’s nice again…

I am told its not like it used to be by previous locals. I enjoyed myself, but it was very risky’, probally not for you conservitive types. I went before the hurricane.

It’ll never be the same…so many of the characters have left the city for good. :( But it’s still worth it!

I have to wonder . . .

twice…once during mardi gras, another just any old time…bought my first legal drink there at 18

Bourbon Street offers a lot of seedy, drunken fun. It’s very touristy, though – it’s not the real New Orleans. It’s definitely worth doing, at least once. Don’t be shy, though.
