Has money and LOVES LSU.
Anybody seen that huge fence that stretches alongside I49 few miles south of port city?
I guarantee you the thing is 200 yrs long and its prob 10-15 foot high, purple and gold and in the middle has some cool blown up LSU football pics on it.
Wish I had pics to share, its something to see.
Anyone else seen this>?

Do they have $15 million to spare?

And right behind it is a couple deep wells in the Haynesville Shale... it is either a company or could have been in the agreement in the oil and gas lease

most likely negotiated into the oil and gas lease. but you are right- the person does have a lot of money.

not a company. for at least the past 10 years, i.e. - before the Haynesville Shale, there has been something LSU related in that spot. before the wall was put up they just had a flag pole with an LSU flag and La. state flag.
whoever they are, they reprefrickinsent.

They have the wall and the Billboard that says This is Tiger country!

That is what I was thinking.... that fence is oil and gas type of money... thing could withstand a hurricane.. and the fence is color coordinated with LSU colors... I would love to have read that lease.

The sign of "Welcome to Tiger Country" is still there with the flag...and they used to have Hesters number 18 as well when he was playing... that is still there.
The fence that he is talking about is new with a couple new wells behind it.

yeah i know, i've seen it. i was just saying that even back in 2001 they had a modest flag pole with a simple LSU flag. doesn't really scream rich land-owners. my guess is they came into some money with a new oil/gas lease and decided to go all out with their LSU pride. works for me.

How far south on I-49? Would this be something that could be seen from the Google street map cams?

probably not. I think it's halfway between Natchitoches and Shreve. near the Ajax exit? anybody have a solid answer on this?
Posted on 1/18/10 at 10:00 pm to Rohan2Reed
it is right after the kingston/frierson exit heading south on I49.
Posted on 1/18/10 at 10:02 pm to Rohan2Reed
did some scouting. supposedly the property is owned by Frank Scott Moran, owner of Moran Oil Co. there's a 3-page thread about the Tiger Country sign on a La Tech message board.

there's some serious flaming and little brother insecurity going on over there.

gas rig barrier
Posted on 1/18/10 at 10:18 pm to deithree
It is a barrier wall for an oilfield drilling prep pad (in other words a drill site) The area behind it if you notice is clear cut...probabaly a high producing well area, and is under lease for a long period of time, therefore the landowner who as stated probably has a boatload of $$$ and is a big tiger fan...it is definitely cool to see though.
Posted on 1/18/10 at 10:35 pm to Rohan2Reed
Yes it is owned by Frank Moran of Moran Oil Co. Saw him the other day and he is a super nice guy and bleeds P & G.

Enjoyed seeing it several times. Thanks to whomever.
