When the New Orleans Saints play four games at LSU's Tiger Stadium, the bars in East Baton Rouge Parish will be closed.
The Metro Council refused Wednesday to lift the Sunday closure rule, citing feedback from residents.
"Every e-mail and call that I have received on the issue has been against this. My constituents do not want to become New Orleans. They don't want to progress in that way," Council member Martha Jane Tassin said.
Another opponent of the measure, Mayor Pro Tem Joe Greco, said he could understand why some Saints fans might want to indulge after watching the Packers defeat the Saints 52-3 on Sunday.
"I think you've got to be drunk to watch the Saints these days. It would be hard to watch them sober," Greco said.
Council member Mickey Skyring had proposed suspension of the bar closing ordinance for Saints' game days.
I'm not even a Saints fan and those quotes have me pissed off! What a moron thing for the Mayor to say about a team and group of fans that have been through hell already. There maybe a target on his head if he attends the games.
