Tisha Thompson, I know New Orleans to be one of the most enjoyable cultural centers in our country.

Of course, the food scene, the nightlife, the music.

It's all top notch.

But you're down there just ahead of Super Bowl 59, literally weeks after the New Year's Day domestic terror attack on Bourbon Street that took 14 lives, injured many others, and postponed the Sugar Bowl.

So what does the big easy look like now compared to any other week?

It's very different, Clinton.

There are signs of police officers, law enforcement, military grade equipment, everywhere you look.

There are these things called Delta gates, which look

like mobile vehicle gates that can go up and prevent a vehicle from going down a street,

pretty much everywhere around Bourbon Street, everywhere around the convention center,

all over the place, of course, around the stadium down here.

Anywhere where the public would be massing, you see these delta gates.

You already can see National Guard soldiers carrying M-4s out for everyone to see.

There are Department of Whole Land Security Special Response

Teams standing next to what are called razors, which are their vehicles that they use to

get to a scene very quickly. It is very obvious that the law enforcement is here and they want

you to see them. New Orleans is a town that welcomes tourism a lot.

And between the last security situation at the Sugar Bowl, another thing went down, which is that

they randomly had like a ton of snow the other week and freaked everybody out. My buddy lives down there

and he was all pissed off because he's from where we're from and he was like, nobody knows how to

drive? My question I'm asking with that, though, is just for the locals, you know, how is morale at this

point in terms of nerves level from what you saw and what you've seen while you've been there?
