Remember the Popeyes just north of campus on Highland


I remember that place AND the Taco Bell that was close to campus.

I could have had my mail delivered there, I was there so much.

Good thing I've always been a runner.

I couldn't put weight on if I tried back then. Wish that were the case now.

Remember Round the Corner. Those were some damn good hamburgers.

Let's see if I can remember. Outside the Gates of LSU (going on Highland looking towards downtown), on the right side of Highland you had: Chimes, The Varsity, Round the Corner, Pedro's farther down, Popeyes', some bar with an Irish name (Hoolihans?), Churches', and some comedy/night club where Gallagher once performed, a wholesale seafood place, Manship Publishing, etc.

On the left side you had: Godfather's Pizza, Shell Station, Mary Lee's Donuts, Burger King, Band Practice Fields, Ace Hardware, The Bengal, some Mafia-looking nightclub, WBRZ-TV, a side street leading to Nicholson and the Pastime :)

Then you had the old original Louie's Cafe (before it moved), the Blood/Plasma Center, an old laundromat, Mr. Gatti's, Wendy's, McDonald's, City National Bank, Murphy's, a Movie Theatre, Grocery Store, etc.

Lair lunches in the Union. Hatcher Cafeteria.
A little snack bar - Foster Commons?, the old Gym Armory, LSU Campus Police, Infirmary. Wow....
