Bourbon is mind boggling. I get Disneyworld. For a lot of those people, it's a big time splurge to go to Disney world and not something they can just do again next year. Telling the kids you're leaving early is probably really hard. Plus presumably a lot of those people had already been in the parks the days before and felt like they were already exposed and helped justify it that way. And they are also probably relatively young so probably did some almost subconscious math about the risks to them personally while ignoring what systemic risk they were contributing to. May be a bad and/or selfish decision, but I get it. We've done Disney and do it more or less on the cheap and it's still expensive enough that I actually feel a little bad thinking about the type of financial sacrifice people are making to give their kids that experience. I have a hard time blaming those parents.

But Bourbon I don't get at all. It's not all it's cracked up to be to begin with and for most people, it's not some once in a lifetime experience, at least because of the cost of doing it. And unlike Disneyworld, you already know New Orleans has become something of a hotspot for corona. Just mind boggling.
