re: Why is Hammond so trashy

You obviously haven't been to Port Allen. I work there and is way worse then Hammond or any other local town

The sign on Augustine's says the Buzz bro.

You ever been to Ville Platte, Eunice, Opelousas, Mamou, or Alexandria baw? Go to those towns and come back to tell me Hammond is trashy. Ville Platte makes Hammond look like San Francisco.

Opelousas is definitely trashy. Ville Platte and Mamou are just shatholes.

No lie it is the nicest Home Depot I've ever been in too.

I've lived here for the last ten years and it's not a bad town. Fall is a lot of fun in town. Sitting outside listening to music and drinking margaritas at La Carretta is something I look forward to especially when the weather is right. They seem to always have something going on downtown at least once a month, decent parks, SLU is a 2 mile jog around campus.

The schools should be better than they are especially given the demographics.

Edit: Augustine's got bought out by the people that owned the Buzz. The Buzz is back and downtown.

Hammond is a great place, and is close enough to BR and Nola to go whenever you want.

Sort of a "pick your poison" situation, then?

Yeah Augustines is now the Buzz but the question is, is can you get the smell of Augustine's out? Lol

As far as the Zaqby's. I give it 6months. It sucks and isn't that close to the interstate. Not many locals will frequent because there is so many better options in town.
