I went. It was crowded. A lot of people in those three blocks.
There were a lot of food and drink vendors and plenty of merch as well. Two stages of music too. Everyone seemed to be enjoying it.

It was a lot of fun. I think I split like 8 poboys. It was too expensive of course (I ended up spending around $50) but a great afternoon and perfect weather.

I had a great time. I tried the grilled portobello with spinach sauce po'boy which was great. I had even more fun second lining down Oak with the Pin Stripe Brass Brand, which made it easier than trying to walk through the crowds sans music. The weather and music was perfect. Next year the planners better come up with even more ways to allow for large crowds. The lines for sandwiches were still long, but not nearly as long as last year's lines.
