2003-02-04: Parlay's

Parlay's is in the heart of Lakeview. This fact is displayed proudly on the side of the building. When you're single and rich in New Orleans, you live Uptown. Once you get married you migrate to Lakeview. I was single and middle class when I lived in Lakeview. Go figure. At the time I lived right across the street from Parlay's, which is a pretty cool bar. Parlay's kind of reminds me of Cheers from TV. Except, being a shotgun bar, it is nowhere near as big.

Sometimes I think it would be cool to live near a bar I actually want to visit. I am afraid to go to any of the ones near my house. I would either be a) The only white guy or b) the only guy under 50, depending on which one I chose. But when I lived across the street from Parlay's I hardly ever went there, I don't know why.

Last Friday after work I dropped by there. 6 PM is extraordinarily early for New Orleans. Most of my friends were nowhere near ready to go out, and everyone in my "quarter krewe" was probably still asleep. My one friend who ever meets me out at 6 on a Friday was sick that day, so I got to go to Parlay's by myself. I don't mind, I am great company.

Parlay's is one of those bars that hosts dramatically different crowds depending on the night and time. On Fridays from 6 to 11 it is mostly people in their 30s and 40s. Once 11 hits on Friday it can get packed with 20 somethings. Although I haven't been there on a late Friday for a while, so that might have changed. I think they might not get quite the crowd they used to, because they used to have many many beers on tap, and now most of the taps on the row have no handles. They still have a better selection of beers than most places in Metairie, however.

2001-10-03: Pat O

Here is the bathroom of Pat O' Briens. This is why not many locals drink Hurricanes. It's ok to puke, but it's not ok to puke pink and red stuff everywhere. This is probably the nastiest I've seen to date.

2001-10-03: Razoo

This is a toilet at Razoo. Notice the beercan floating merrily in the bowl. Joe's friend Sarah works at Razoo...come to think of it, there's this hot chick Paula that I used to be friends with in High School that works there also. So I walk up to her and say, "Hey, Paula, remember me? We used to walk home from school together!" And she smiled and took me aside to talk. Then I just drew a blank and said, "I don't really have anything to say." And walked away. She didn't seem to think that was too suave. At any rate, every other time I've attempted to talk to her since then it has turned out pretty much the same.

2001-10-03: Razoo Too

Here's another toilet at Razoo. Note the deuce beercan balancing going on on the pot. So anyway, the next time I was at Razoo I was hanging out with this tourist guy, his brother, and his brother's stripper wife. So I tell them the story in the paragraph above, and the girl's all like, "You're so hot...God...you should just go up and talk to her, I know a hundred girls in Alexandria who would just be all over you" (etc.) So the tourist guy starts to get up...and I told him, "Don't do me any favors!" And he says, "That would be pretty dick...I'm not going to talk to her!" So he orders some beers, and I look over to see what's what. Next thing I know he's talking to Paula and pointing at me...I can see his lips saying, "Man, he LOVES you!". Needless to say Paula wasn't impressed.

2001-10-21: Harrah's

Here is a relatively clean toilet at Harrah's Casino on Canal Street. Casinos were illegal on land in New Orleans, hence the riverboat Casinos. So how did they manage to place a Casino smack dab at the foot of Canal street? In true Loosiana style they amended the law to state that there can be no land based casinos unless they are at the foot of Canal street.

Having a Casino downtown is nice. It gives you a place to urinate on the way back to your car without having to buy drinks. Of course, you could just use the parking lot as noted in an earlier picture, but I find actually going IN to the casino to be a bit more classy.
