Nice little article from about tourists on the Alabama Gulf a Coast, written by someone who lives there. Worth a read, but I thought the Louisiana folks who make up a majority of this board would enjoy this part:

quote:

Of course, some tourists earn the enmity of locals. My wife was walking back from the beach one day and heard loud voices coming from one of the porches. “I’ll bet they’re from Louisiana,” she said to herself. A quick check of license plates on the cars parked beneath the house confirmed her suspicions.

Without a doubt, those who travel here from Louisiana are louder and drunker than the rest. A friend of mine who officiates beach weddings told me, “If you have to tell them to put down their beer and cigarette to start the service, they’re from Louisiana.”


Gulf Shores' Good Tourists - Even the Louisianans (Usually)

I hope you didn't think you'd be able to offend anyone here by talking about the quality of the individual who goes to Gulf Shores.

Folks from Louisiana not pretentious for the most part and aren't ashamed to have a good time. Be grateful they share their free spirits and money with you.

Not trying to offend anyone, just thought it was funny. Figured most here could laugh at it and make fun of themselves/their state.

He should be fired for being swampphobic. I can't believe people still judge others based on what state they're from. It's 2017 for God's sake

The half capacity crowd at TS during the 2nd half is impressive. Them beers and whiskey won't drink themselves out at the tailgate.

Why do people from Louisiana stop in the trash pit of Gulf Shores? Drive an hour down the road to nicer Florida.

It's like the drunks on Bourbon are mostly Bammers and Ole Miss folks that are wound so tight at home they can't stop drinking when they get to a place like the French Quarter.
