New Orleans. The City of Parties. But no party quite compares like the party of a home game for the New Orleans Second Line. The city comes to life — more so than any other time of year. Brass bands take to the street as jazz musicians play harmonizing riffs from the rooftops. NOLA homers build floats to the enemy team that they drive straight into the bayou, signifying NOLA's imminent total swamping of the enemy (a second pregame tradition follows, where dozens of people dive into the water and pull the float out of the bayou to then repurpose for next week because global warming is a real issue and the New Orleans Second Line works tirelessly t help make sure our planet survives). Food vendors sell gumbo, jazzy js, and other delicious New Orleans specialties but also make sure to sell specialties of the visiting city - with a healthy sales tax, of course! Sometimes, if the game is big enough, injured NOLA players will go to the party and sit with them until the game starts. Occasionally, some superstars will go to join them and retired hall of famers can often be found leading some chant or jazz band in joyous celebration.
