He wasn’t a New Orleanian, but he loved NOLA and we loved him right back. He began his music career in the French Quarter, was a huge fan of the
@Saints
& performed many
@jazzfest
sets. We will miss him.
Thinking of Jimmy’s family & raising a margarita in his honor today.
On behalf of the New Orleans Saints, we send our thoughts and prayers to Jimmy Buffett's family, friends and fans
He was an iconic performer, a true Saints fan, a dear friend of New Orleans, and the life of the party
Jimmy will be dearly missed but celebrated forever 🙏

Spotted, striped, purebred, mixed-breed. And one unifying factor: costumes. The Mystic Krewe of Barkus Parade winds through NOLA, & the only thing better than a parade of dogs in costumes is this year’s theme. “Game of Bones: Barkus Marks Its Territory.”

‘Twas the night before Christmas, in dear New Orleans,
All street music was silent, and no tourists were seen.
The streetcars were nestled by St. Charles with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there...
