Imagine how this meeting must have went. You’ve got the mayor, the police chief, probably the fire chief. All these high ranking folks sitting together in a room trying to figure out whether or not they should rub some Crisco all over their 200-year-old light poles on Bourbon Street. Imagine someone being in that meeting who wasn’t a big sports fan. They’d have no idea about the context behind greasing the poles, and here they are debating on whether to spend city funds on rubbing cooking grease on the light poles.
