Boycotting the Super Bowl? Here’s a list of #PettyParties

by Mary Staes | January 24, 2019

Nope, we’re not watching that game.

You know, that game we’re supposed to be playing in? That one.

But we’re going to do what we know how to do best: be petty. Bars are already announcing their plans to boycott the ~~illegitimate~~ Super Bowl, and some of them are even replaying the 2010 game, which we all know the outcome of.

We’re sure there’s a quip about making your own happiness here, but we’re still too hurt.

“There are no two ways about it: New Orleans was screwed!” says the announcement on Facebook for the Anti-LIE Bowl Party. We couldn’t agree more. You’re encouraged to wear your Saints gear, and best of all, someone will be dressed up in a striped shirt for the Ref Dunk Tank. Co-hosts include Slim Goodies Diner, Pigment Custom Tattoo and Piercing, King Cake Hub, Butterfly FX, Limitless Deejaying, Nola Couture and more.

Tracey’s Original Irish Bar

Wanna see the Saints in a Super Bowl? We got you. Crawfish for bonus points in overtime.

Blue Oak BBQ

The 2010 Super Bowl game and king cake daiquiri specials? Works for us.

Crown and Anchor English Pub

By popular demand, this bar (literally on Algiers Point) will be showing the Saints Super Bowl. It’s a potluck, like most games at the bar, but owners say if the weather permits they’ll be firing up the grill too.
