The fratdaddy or sorostitute that is hunting for a vacation destination with high fratmospheric levels are looking for a city with several attributes: luxury accommodations, morally casual laws regarding the intake of libations, and unlimited frattabbing opportunities. When we were pondering these qualities, the first city that came to mind was one that has long been a popular destination for fratty individuals all across the country: New Orleans, Louisiana.
Many southern fraternities have long made New Orleans a prime formal destination, and one reason for this is the numerous luxury hotels that are right in the middle of the French Quarter action. The discerning fratdaddy is looking for a hotel that will put him and his date up in style while still maintaining the party fratmosphere of the Frat Castle. There are numerous New Orleans hotels that live up to this billing. When choosing your Nawlins hotel, there is one virtue that puts some establishments above all others…their balconies that overlook the hallowed French Quarter streets. We dare you to find a frattier location to establish your fratio away from campus.
Of course, what truly makes the French Quarter famous is its numerous bars and “gentleman’s clubs”. Keep in mind, you will be hard pressed to find anything that looks like your campus Greek bar in New Orleans due to the fact that people from all different parts of the country and of all different ages come to enjoy the New Orleans night life. However, we have seen first hand that a determined group of fratdaddies and sorostitutes can walk into almost any bar on Bourbon Street and blow its fratmosphere out the roof. At the same time, you don’t really even need a roof: one of the great things about the New Orleans bars is the ability to get your drinks to go while hopping from spot to spot and enjoying the sites of the street. From Pat O’s, to the Tropical Isle, to the street vendors selling Big Ass Beers, it’s easy to find a place that will suit your needs for the evening. In addition, be sure to treat your sorostitute guests with a visit to one of New Orleans’ fine gentlemen’s clubs. You fratdaddies get a chance to help fund a young lady’s college education by giving her “tuition money”, and the sorostitutes will all feel better about themselves upon leaving.

If any part of the New Orleans social landscape approaches the fame of its bars, it is the numerous 5 star restaurants that are found throughout the city. Whether in the French Quarter or in the Garden District, there are numerous quality dining experiences which represent some of our nation’s finest frattabbing opportunities. There is no better way to start off your evening than by directing your group to Commander’s Palace or Galitoire’s for a meal in one of their private dining rooms. Once there, you should start the evening frattabbing with a premium selection from the wine list. While looking at the menu, the culinary options are often so tantalizing that it is hard to make a decision. When in doubt, we suggest that you order the most expensive thing on the menu. Why? Because you can.
While in New Orleans, we recommend that you visit one of your Professors’ favorite producers of quality fratwater: the Abita brewery in Abita Springs, Louisiana. Visiting a brewery is a less traditional fratty activity that you will enjoy in addition to the more conventional pursuits you will engage in while in New Orleans.
In closing, when looking for a fratty place for a weekend road trip or while planning a formal, perhaps you should look no further than the fratty destination of New Orleans, Louisiana. You’ll never have such a great time while giving back to the effort to restore a national disaster area.
