I am surprised at this even considering last year. NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) - All bars will be closed for indoor and outdoor dining citywide from Friday, Feb. 12 through Mardi Gras day, Mayor LaToya Cantrell announced. Liquor stores will be closed and liquor sales in the French Quarter will be banned. Portions of the French Quarter will be closed to traffic. Closures will occur on Decatur, Bourbon, and Frenchmen Streets. Officers will be at every intersection of the closure, per NOPD. Claiborne Corridor will be fenced off. I am really concerned about Mardi Gras and the potential for super spreaders,” Cantrell said Thursday at the groundbreaking for a new shelter. Governor John Bel Edwards said there will be an increased presence of state troopers, Fire Marshals, and ATC officers. A video of large gatherings on Bourbon Street posted to Twitter spurred officials’ efforts to begin outlining ways to control crowd sizes.

^^^^^^^  "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

If masks work, why do we need social distancing? And if masks and social distancing work, why do we need vaccines? | |||

I don't understand this ongoing escalating oppression what so ever. Perhaps you can clear it up? "Fixed fortifications are monuments to mans stupidity" - George S. Patton | |||

I’d be shocked if there wasn’t a large degree of drunken civil disobedience in the near future... “Remember to get vaccinated or a vaccinated person might get sick from a virus they got vaccinated against because you’re not vaccinated.” - author unknown | |||

I listened to the press conference The city COO blamed all the bars that have not abided by the on going restrictions for killing people basically Latoya the Destroya (Mayor) threatened to shut down businesses permanently if they do not adhere to the new shut down ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Live today as if it may be your last and learn today as if you will live forever | |||

A friend who lives outside of the city in Slidell said they cancelled a lot of the parades. So tourist traffic will be way down. | |||

We’ve spent the last 4 days in New Orleans. It is dead. The few folks we have seen are masked indoors and out. A drive around the French Quarter was no different. We visited the WW2 Museum and it was dead as well. We’re lodging in Covington and for 2 of the evening dinners, we were the nay ones in the restaurants.

Went to New Orleans once...not at Mardi Gras.... I have never understood the attraction of getting stupid drunk and showing it in public.... It seems that's what down town was all about. My Native American Name: "Runs with Scissors" | |||

I've been there also, and also not at Mardi Gras, but I was under the impression that Nawlins was about the food and the partying was secondary. | |||
