Mardi Gras

I'll be introducing myself on the local news down there soon. Who knows what for, but I'm sure it will be well worth it!

Anyway, just looking for some recommendations from some of you NOLA locals. I've visited there a couple of times and never been disappointed. I am sure this trip will be no different. But, with it being MG, I don't want to step into anything. I didn't know if they stepped up monitoring providers/clients or just focused all of their resources on crowd control and more serious stuff.

Anyone?

I'm no expert, but it always seemed to me that during MG, the authorities have their hands full with crowd control, parades, etc. to worry about the hobbyists. I usually do a fair amount of hobbying during MG as the traveling ladies are in town.

Hope this helps, and I'll try to respond quicker next time...

I'll make these suggestions to you.

1. Stick with reviewed ladies or the very few agencies in in the NOLA area that have a good rep.

2. Be very careful what you pick up on the streets of NOLA. While the previous posts are accurate about the 5-O having their hands full with other issues... the people they have their hands full with are what you have to watch out. You don't want to have your pants around your ankles when you find out your new friend as a friend that wants your wallet.

3. There will be a lot of ladies hit town around MG and BP and CL will fill up with ads. Verify, Verify, Verify... again refer to #1. If you know when you are going to be here schedule early with some of our fine ladies. Get your screening out of the way now. Know if you are going to her she is cumming to. Planning is a great thing.

Many of us from South LA do one of two things at MG. We either get neck deep in MG or get the hell out of town. I'll be in Sunny South FL enjoying the glow of a Saints Super Bowl win personally. I'll phone in reports of the poon activities in S. FL.

Oh yes. If in need you can hit some of the AMPS ... there are some that are better than others and you may have to drive to a part of town that isn't the FQ but you'll be safe just know where you are going and don't get lost.

I disagree with the statement that the police have their hands full during MG. One of Vin's girls was busted during the season. She reported lots of other BP & CL gals in the clink with her.
