Nah. You live in the middle of nowhere if you’re in laffy. Not easy to get to the city for games, longer for the beach, further from the best part of the state in st tammany

Been like that for a bit.
Lafayette is a big “small” town.

When you’re talking about the positives of a city and its distance to the northshore is in its top 3 most favorable attributes, you know you’ve got a problem.

“Middle of nowhere”? Please.

Literally the middle of I-10 relative to the widest part of LA.

TX = 1 hr
BR = 45 min

When I lived in Jackson this is exactly how I would describe when people asked…..Madison is the St Francisville.

If you think Lafayette or BR are the 2nd best city in the state, I hate to hear which city you think is #1.
