Where is the best place to star gaze in the GNO? The lakefront? On the levee somewhere along the river?

I’m not sure how accurate that map is. It has some spot labeled yellow that I’ve been to where the stars are just incredible on a cloudless night.

The Fly, behind the Audubon Zoo. That is if they let you go back there after dark. Carry a pistol.

Pelicans playoff games had a few stars. When the All-Star game is in town is probably the best.
