    It's more like n'-WALL-ins. To a Yat, it's NAW-lins.

    A Yat is a certain sect of New Orleanian....usually a born and bred New Orleanian. They have an almost Brooklyn-like accent.

    They can be heard greeting others with "Where yat?!" and so they are called Yats.

    Same douche probably says 'Nawlins' or 'New Orleens' whenever he talks about paradise.

    That should be "well I'll be darned" or preferably "well I'll be damned".

    New Orleans pronounciation differs with the age and location of the speaker. It can properly be said New OR LEE ans, Na Awlins, Nawlins, or NA Rrrr Lens, or Nawlians.
