I'm in Lafayette, and most times have to watch games in the kitchen I work in, but I would bet whiskey river is a cool spot for saints games. Maybe give them a call to make sure they got tvs and all that...

Im getting pretty pumped up already!

Thanks St. Thomas. I just want to whiskey River and they wouldn't even let me in... So forget them. How much does it cost to turn the TV on for somebody. Especially when I'm hungry and I want to drink . Mcgees take me about 10 minutes to find me but I'm gonna sit here for minute see how they do

Overall not impressed with Whiskey River Landing or McGees.

Whiskey River Landing girl was pleasant, but no one even seemed aware there was a Saints game on. ????? They didnt even have the tv on. Im walking round w/ 7 Benjamins in my back pocket, a mighty thirst, AND im Hungry!
They wanted me to wait outside until 3pm. so, NEXT!

I sat in McGees for 15 min before anyone noticed me. One bartender was apologetic, and very nice. The rest of the staff there acted like I had The Plague, and very rudely refused to acknowledge my presence. Its too bad, because this place is on a beautiful site. A place like that should be packed to the gills, and be bigger than Mulates. I guess their mgmt isnt that bright.

Turtle Bar, the first one on the Levee, was fairly good. They need to employ more than just one server, on game day, but she happened to rock. A couple guys in there had no interest in the game, and were so busy laughing idiotically, it was a bit disconcerting. I guess it was their first time to drink.
Im surprised to know there are people in S. LA, who dont bleed black & gold, and here I am from Texas & my heart is Fleur-Shaped.
