Hysterical!My funniest experience on a streetcar in New Orleans was back around 2003 or so, and I was on the St Charles line along the Carrollton section. All of a sudden, the streetcar stops in the middle of a block, and the guy driving it says "I'll be right back folks", with the typical southern LA accent.... He runs across the street and into a Subway sandwich shop. And we sit there....no one says a word....nothing out of the ordinary, streetcars backing up behind us.... Finally, after some minutes, the guy comes running out of the Subway sandwich shop, with a bag with a hero (of excuse me, po'boy) in it!!! He stopped to get lunch!! He jumps back in the streetcar, sets it forward, and onwards we go... No one flinched (it was a full car), no one said a word....no one complained, and off we went..... Imagine that happening in New York! ---Only in New Orleans---- The first thing I learned when I got there the first time was to Sloooooooowwwww way down.... Nothing phases them.... |
