While Chicago and LA have included bottomless mimosas, we've decided to switch it up in NOLA. If you've ever been to Handsome Willy's in New Orleans, you know them for their infamous Handsome Juice. The party starts at 4pm and goes until we get tired of dancing. Advanced tickets are $10 online and we've got $5 handsome juice, margaritas and $8 chicken & waffles. If you're still not sold, below is just a small taste of Chicago.
