I don’t know. The article in the Houma Times did not mention that. It even did not mention that they had a location in Thibodaux. The article was cut and pasted from Southland Mall’s Facebook:

Southland Mall is looking up these days. Just last year they added an indoor go cart track in the former RiteAid/K&B space. Some of the fields behind the mall were turned into soccer fields. They added The Red Seal Pizza restaurant in the Cucos/A&G Cafeteria space. There is still a lot of vacant space on that wing. Heck the movie theater hasn’t shown a film in nearly 20 years, and the bank closed sometime after Regions bought American Bank and Trust in the late 1990’s.

Fun fact for your Sunday, the main cinema in the Southland Mall Cinema could seat 600 movie goers, and had one of the largest indoor movie screens at the time. The cinema also featured rocking seats.

Me and brother use to get the throwing stars and a set of files to sharpen them from 6-Star then we qould draw a man an our fence and throw them at the fence. We also got our set of Lawn Darts from them..... fun times.

Went into southland around Christmas time and was quite sad at what it’s become. Spent a lot of time there as a kid

Malls are real estate time bombs. They kept moving my ex's sister's store and giving her a deal on rent just to help male it look full in certain parts. Until recently, there hasn't been much interest from businesses to move in there.
