Baton Rouge nostalgia: Warren Capone’s Linebackers Grill on Essen Lane

I thought it was good. They had that big wall of TV that was high tech for the time.

went one time, food was mediocre at best, never went back

How bout Lyman Whites chicken wing place on Lee Dr ?

Went a few times, he was an arse hole, and food/service was shite.

One time when me and my buds went, we ordered, and were standing around the counter waiting, for our order.

Lyman, says, yall go sit down man, this aint no fast food joint ! We laughed.....

He was in way over his head...........

Jason’s or J. Scott’s, had to name change to J Scott’s because of a cease and desist from Jason’s Deli.

All I remember about it was that there was a girl who worked there who was one of the best-looking women I've ever seen in my life

went a few times. sec radio show broadcast from there on time

Would serve us beer there while in high school

I remember the guy telling us that when we ate there. What bullshite though. They established their place first but then Jason's deli came to town and they were forced to change their name. Said they could have fought but would have cost them more money than they had to spend so they just knuckled under. What really sucks is that the name was personal - his sons name was Jason.

I have never been to his restaurant but I remember him very well from the late 1960s. He was a great linebacker for the Tigers.
