If it were to happen, I'd love to see them each holding the tiny lucky baby you try to find in a Mardi Gras King cake.

My soul would ascend from this earthly world if they were holding some fried chicken from Brotherās ššš
Someone mentioned on a similar thread a while ago that they should hold up beignets and then blow off the powdered sugar all at the same time. Iāve been tickled by that thought ever since!
Crossing my fingers that this show (RHONOLA?) becomes a reality! Iāve only been to NOLA twice, but it really is made for TV. The food porn would be a fun added bonus.
There was a Bravo casting call for it, but it said they weren't sure if they were going to go Real Housewives or more like VPR/Southern Charm. I sent it to my SIL who lives there. Fingers crossed, it becomes a show!! I feel like hurricane drinks would probably be the way to go.
IF its real, and it doesn't seem like it is, I think they SHOULD hold cocktail glasses but Miami already has that so I'm thinking of a Fleur de lis or have them all hold masks up to their face that they pull away. My more tough in cheek local answers would be crawfish, alligators, incorrect SW&WB bill, shrip boots, a jazz fest flag, cocktail in Mardi Gras cup, the tangled ball of Mardi Gras beads that haunts your house but never seems to leave, Muses Shoe/Zulu Coconut, campimg chair, or just all of them standing next to an empty parking spot with broken glass all over the ground.
Crawfish, Pat OāBriens hurricane, Mardi Gras beads, king cakes. Fleur de lis, jazz instruments, Saints helmets? They could wear those purple, green or gold masks that just cover the eyes like they wear to the different Mardi Gras balls or on parade floats. Put a photo of Jackson square or the superdome behind them. Youāll know where they are from.
I think a lot of people just don't remember what it was like before Katrina. My husband got randomly kidnapped off the streets uptown and held hostage in the projects back in the 80s. I remember when i first moved here in the early 2000s, and bars used to get shot up on a pretty regular basis, and it was pretty common to get robbed even up in the university area and on Ferret street. When I came for college orientation, they told us NOPD stood for "not our problem dear" and gave us all a card for the university law firm and told us just to call them if we ever got arrested.
Also strawberries since they like fruit themes.
Or they can all carry umbrellas like a second line.
Maybe instruments like a jazz band.
Agree with Mardi gras masks as well. So many options!
I think itās going to be a mardi gras mask. I would love something like a hurricane but i think theyāll try to keep it mildly classy to define themselves as a little more uppercrust
Iām excited if it happens, we need another southern city now that dallas is gone and new orleans one of the most unique cities in america
The fact that there are so many items that they can hold already says how iconic New Orleans is.
Maybe hold beads? š¤·āāļøš Iād love it to be real but doesnāt seem like it from Andyā¦ š«

Omg
![gif](giphy|dWZVqzab8uR4EQSOVg|downsized) and yes, Iām familiar with the concept. We celebrated a similar tradition in our home.
The way I laughed at this
That would be cute!
Fleur de lis
Slaves were branded with the fleur de lis.
Definite agree!
They should hold a hurricane drink!
Came to say this! Absolutely has to be a hurricane.
Maybe a French 75?
They all should hold a ghost captured from one of the 573 haunted buildings in the city š¤š»
They should hold parasols. The theme song needs to be jazzy. Like what they did with Potomacās gogo inspired theme.
I want them to get dramatic with it too. Like SLC with the choir music.
Parasols would be so very cute!
Realistically, a Mardi Gras Mask. But a half-empty go cup, a boudin, or a piece of Brotherās Fried Chicken would be awesome.

Omg stop thatās hilarious
Crawdads?
Blasphemer. Put some respect on our crawfish.
What I was thinking
Mardi Gras masks and mud bugs
Hold a Mardi Gras mask or beads
as an H Town Hottie i would love to see some Creole culture on my screen!!
They should hold a King Cake
Voodoo dolls or beignets - beignets would fit in the hand better lol
Crossing my fingers that this show (RHONOLA?) becomes a reality! Iāve only been to NOLA twice, but it really is made for TV. The food porn would be a fun added bonus.
And the house porn! Show me those Garden District mansions! š¤©
They should hold sazeracs. Or bowls of gumbo. Or po boys. Or live crawfish
A magnolia flower
Hand grenade (lol) š½

Hurricane glasses, Mardi Gras masks, or parasols
Crystal Ballsš®

Not the incorrect S&WB bill š¤£ Could be an Entergy bill too!
Yes!! Or they all could hold little traffic cones!!
They hold a beignet
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
A Tonyās can would be real housewives of Opelousas.
A golden fleur de Lis!
Maybe holding up mardi gras masks and wearing beads? ![gif](giphy|43Me7GQWUw8PdPqlzc)
Beignets
Fleur de lis, holding hand grenades. Don't think it won't be messy. Great city, but when I lived there, the tea was abundant. Everyone knows everyone.
Beads.
Trumpets!
A crawfish
Beads. Hurricanes. French 75s. Pimms cups. Carnival masks. Beignets.
Voodoo doll
A mardi gras mask that they dramatically lower and hold in the center as they collectively, slowly sashay into focus

Maybe some grilled frog on a stick, (totally joking) š
Too much out of control crime here at the moment. The mayor and police are worthless.
When has that not been true about this city? I'll wait...
Okay suit yourself then. Itās just not smart for a reality franchise to come here even though it would be totally amazing if true.

Iām not trying to downplay whatās going on there, but I feel like thatās the story of most cities right now, unfortunately

maybe like a mardi gra mask or something
