The most recognizable thing about Baton Rouge (outside of LSU) is the bridge.

That says a lot, but zydeco and crawfish (I get it BR boils them) aren't exactly BR things.

A Baton Rouge
B Crawfish
C Zydeco

Excellent branding choice by the team organization. The bridge logo is ridiculously bad. The fleur de lis?

The OPs "friends" version is even worse. Just lumping in more Cajun/Creole culture for laughs?

Official team statement on name Zydeco

quote:

Zydeco music, deeply rooted in Louisiana's cultural tapestry, traces its origins back to the early 20th century. Combining elements of blues, rhythm and blues, and Creole music, Zydeco's lively accordion-driven melodies and infectious rhythms have become a symbol of celebration and community in the region.

General Manager of the Raising Cane’s River Center Wayne Hodes expressed his excitement, saying, "We wanted a name that truly represents the spirit and energy of both Baton Rouge and Louisiana, and Zydeco captures that essence perfectly. This team will bring the exciting sport of hockey to the capital city while also offering affordable entertainment in an exhilarating environment for the fans."


More gems in there. Top notch marketing happening here.

Chicken fingers would be more fitting.

No, it’s the state capitol building.
