Went there with a few friends on the first night of my first trip to new orleans 5 years ago and it was the birth place of one of the best inside jokes ever. For those who haven't been, it's an extra-old, un-upgraded building with extra-low ceilings. Anyway, we're sitting at the bar, enjoying our beers, when a policeman on horseback comes up to the open doorway, and horse and rider both duck their heads under the extra-low doorway and come inside to check things out. To this day, we just have to say to one another "so a horse walks into a bar . . ." and we dissolve into giggles. Maybe you had to be there . . . Tue Nov 24 21:10:03 -0800 2009 5203513 14819 cookie monster 3 5207453 That's a great story. Those open doors can be a blessing and a curse. One time we were in there about 3 in the afternoon and a young man, obviously high on something and with a grudge, ran in the place, picked up one of those table candles in the glass jars they have or had and whipped it as hard as he could at the bartender, who proceeded to grab a baseball bat from behind the bar and chase the guy down the street. The 8-10 people in there, us included, just kind of looked at one another, did a big "ho-hum" and went back to drinking. I've seen some weird stuff in that place.

It was quite a site to see this beautiful animal looking right in your face. We asked him if he wanted a beer but he said no, he was on duty Fri Nov 27 08:33:32 -0800 2009 5206752 39681 zach623 1 5204567 Johnny White's (the one on St Peter, not Bourbon). Say hi to Evil Bob. Also, they open at like 6am or something like that. Tue Nov 24 04:36:07 -0800 2009 5200857 127594 kukubura 2 5207533 Johnny White's on St. Peter never closes! It was open 24/7 even during and after Katrina. It's always our first stop when we come to town.......nice friendly people! Wed Nov 25 08:46:11 -0800 2009 5204567 272980 sueinwis 3 5212646 I should have guessed that. One early morning (5am) I set up under the balcony next door to paint the Pres Hall building. I was lucky to be under the balcony because I got caught in a torrential downpour while "Windex Pete" talked my ear off about lord knows what. When I was done a couple hours later I ducked in Johnny White's for an early morning drink. I was soaked to the bone, balcony or no, and it was definitely a welcoming joint. Sat Nov 28 10:23:07 -0800 2009 5207533 127594 kukubura 3 5235552 Actually, Johnny White's on St Peter Street closed for Katrina. It was up and running as soon as they could re-open and eventually were back to operating 24/7. It was the other Johnny White's (different owner) on Bourbon and Orleans that never closed throughout the Katrina disaster.
