So I posted a while back on where to stay. Well places are limited (I picked the NY game to go to, not smart). Anywhere in South End and NoDa are gone on Air BnB. Found a pretty nice townhouse in the Fourth Ward. I am assuming this is Uptown. Anyone live around here, thoughts?

If you're not trying to walk out of the place and be in the middle of things, I would just find a place 10 mins outside of the city on the light rail (either way) and take the train in. It's cheap and easy. Would also be a less than $10 Uber back if you didn't want to wait on the train.

A friend of mine lived in fourth ward a while back.  It nice but I would caution you on walking home late night after drinking.  Lots of scary stories out there of muggings and worse.

I live in the fourth ward, and the comments above talking about muggings are completely inaccurate. You have a better chance of getting mugged at R. Bearden park, which is a block from the stadium in center of it all.

 

@Shocker I'd be interested to hear your friend's story. I have lived in the fourth ward for multiple years and it's the quietest area of the city.

Yes it’s been a while since he lived there, maybe 10 yrs ago.  His neighbor got stopped by 3 dudes late night who robbed him and a buddy.  Shoot I had a guy come out of the shadows asking for money, I gave him a twenty and he went away quietly, but just saying walking around late night down there drunk is risky.  I don’t care what anyone says.  Not bashing only fourth ward here.

And yeah that can be said for most big cities.

You'll be fine in Fourth Ward, especially on game day. Muggings can happen anywhere: South End, NoDa, Plazza Midwood. It comes with having a city.

Plus, if you're out in center city getting drunk, just take a Uber straight to your door and you won't have to worry about walking (Uber would be like $5 max).

The only thing I would caution is going north of 277 (along Tryon Street) and West of Graham St near where 277 and Graham St. meet, but this still most only applies to night time. If you're there at night, then you're either really lost or looking for trouble.

Isn't that the Hidden Valley Kings area?

      I feel like we are running out of time on dodging this bullet.  It will be us within 5 years or less imo.

      Brother, I don't have a clue about what to watch, Ive been victim to too many "reality TV" scams. Bear Grylls was the last straw for me.... wait a second I did watch early pawn stars for about 6 full seasons. That slop 90 Day Fiance, Temptation Island, and marriage at first sight shows should be banned. Total trash that get insane ratings.  The last series I watched with GREAT joy and excitement was the first Dexter series on showtime. They do not make any TV movie slop for me in the last 20 or so years. New Dexter was a complete joke. Besides having one gem hidden each year, example I liked dune..... but Im a Syfy junkie.  Hell recently Im on the wine mom schedule with murder shows Forensic Files, dateline, any murder shows copies. My TV/movies knowledge is 20 years ago when history channel had Modern Marvels, MTV played music videos, and BET had Comic View. My gods do I miss those days... Plus Im on a terrible Habit with YouTube shorts, I need to do better...... Sucks being a old soul in this era.

      Idk maybe. Guys like Favre, Rodgers, Brees also only having 1 kinda takes the heat off the Colts only getting 1 with Manning. And none of those QBs had to deal with the Pats dynasty or Steelers/Ravens mini-dynasties (no they are not dynasties but both those teams were in the mix pretty much every year in the AFC and both won 2 SBs in Manning’s career). Honestly think if the Manning Colts were in the NFC they’d have won 2-3.   An elite QB is a big deal but you still have to build a team around them. They could’ve been like the Dolphins with Marino.
