...Girl Talk pep rally ended in ignominy. Audience members were shoved and crushed to the point of bruising, pregaming retroactively devolved into mere “gaming,” and dozens of cold, slightly drunk students never got to hear what the Krokodiloes would sound like remixed with Birdman and Lil Wayne’s 2007 hit “Pop Bottles” (the answer is “incredible”). The DJ himself skipped off early, back to his hotel, presumably to watch Starz until he fell asleep...

...Really Hard Piece,’” he said. The bare script of “Godot” allowed itself to be molded by the chaos of post-Katrina New Orleans. Describing the production, Chan recalled, “the bat...the cars, and the drunk guy screaming, ‘I’m waiting too!’” These stray sounds from the city helped settle Beckett’s spare script into its rough setting. “The silence of the play,” Chan said...

Booze is a huge part of French Quarter life; I hesitate to call it "culture," because the sheer number of dead-drunk people gets depressing quickly. In fact, if you want to turn yourself off liquor for good, take a slow walk down Bourbon Street on a Saturday night.
