Seeking a parade switch: The Super Bowl will be in New Orleans next year. Great news for tourism. But for one intergalactic walking parade krewe, maybe not so much, Doug MacCash reports. As we hit the height of the Carnival season, be sure to check our Mardi Gras landing page for all the latest news. Trendy offense: When new Saints offense coordinator Klint Kubiak joins the fold (the move is all but officially announced), the Black & Gold will be part of a trend sweeping the NFL. Saints beat writer Matthew Paras has the details. Teacher $$$: A couple of New Orleans area teachers received a big honor — and a very sweet payday — on Wednesday. (And while you’re here, you gotta check out Brett Duke’s photos — chef’s kiss!) Today’s chatter: Abita Springs Mayor Dan Curtis talked with our Alex Lubben about the investigation into apparent misspending by some town officials. Nick Saban has found a landing spot after retiring from coaching at Alabama, Patrick Magee reports. And a New Orleans real estate investor finds himself in even more legal hot water, Missy Wilkinson reports. Thanks for reading Lunch Line.
