The belief is that one must break off a piece of brick from another tomb, spin around three times, scrape three X's onto the tomb, and do some sort of knocking on the tomb.

YES, New Orleans is a bit trashy. Most REAL cities are trashy to some degree. New Orleans kinda has a New York vibe (as far as trash is concerned).

Is New Orleans dangerous at night?

There are safe areas, just like in other cities. However, they are only safe in the day. I would especially avoid certain areas at night, such as New Orleans East, The Lower 9th Ward (or the 9th ward in general), or especially towards gentilly. Go in those areas at night only if you have a death wish.

How do they dress in New Orleans?

The streets of New Orleans provide the perfect backdrop for sporting linens and cottons as well as high-tech breathable-yet-chic athletic wear. Sundresses or a flowing skirt paired with a tank top are great choices for women. Guys, lightweight classic shorts by night; pants by night can be your go-to.
