French Quarter poles are ‘quite old,’ New Orleans police say ahead of the Super Bowl. Don’t topple them.
Super Bowl host New Orleans is no stranger to thousands of out-of-town revelers descending upon the city and authorities there did not balk when asked if they’d be greasing their poles. They pointed out that an annual pole-greasing party hosted by a hotel in the French Quarter is how the city kicks off Mardi Gras.
