Why did they have such a huge crowd for Panic at the Disco???


Just a guess, but I would say weather had as much to do with it as anything. I drove by there around 1:30 in the afternoon and it was JAMMED UP!!! I started thinking about it and Saturday was one of the few Saturdays that we have had this summer where rain was not in the forecast.

Just a guess. I could be wrong.

They're still popular? I remember them from middle school.

It's honestly no different from when they were having concerts 9 years ago when I started working there. People used to fall out all the time. It's just now people have a pretty widespread vehicle (Facebook) to complain on.

This is a lot less crowded than they have been in the past.

People were talking about this at work yesterday. Said every time they posted a negative comment on their facebook Blue Bayou would remove it. Heard that you had to write a review so that it couldn't be removed.

Blue Bayou is trying to reduce the negative image from this overcrowding they experienced but it doesn't look like it is going away anytime soon.

It's a WATER PARK.

They couldn't turn on some hoses and give out cups of water?


And when are they gonna change that offensive name? "DIXIE" landing? Come on, it's 2015.

You couldn't pay me to go to Blue Bayou on the weekends
Only decent time to go is early in morning during the week if you want to bring the kids but no telling what kind of creepers are hanging out

I worked there one summer about 12-15 years ago.

The owner called me a bum bc I didn't shave. The owners friend however resembled nick nolte, hulk hogan, and rod Stewart all into one person

My daughter and her friends have been trying to get me to take them for this one. After reading everything about this place and the concert, I think we'll skip it and do something else

Why the shock now? That place has been a dump for years.

Yep. Always had to be shaven.

Haha, Dennis Densmore. He was the 50 year old man always hitting on the young lifeguard girls. His daughter is a smokeshow though

They are victims for pouring out their money to that overrated shithole of a park

Youtube Video: Blue Bayou Panic

The Livingston Parish crowd was out in full force that night. Plenty of GIF material in this video

It was $4/hour + a bonus of $2/hour if you make it to the end of the season. 90% of people get fired or quit by the end of the season so they don't get that $2/hour bonus.

I'm shocked that people wanted to see that bad so darn bad. Hell, it's not exactly Pearl Jam playing at Blue Bayou. I don't even know one single song that they sing, but then again, I'm old.
