re: Walk On's moving into old Mugshots space in Towne Center

I wasn't really speaking for the new location, just Walk-Ons in general

It's what it is, and IMO, better suited for right outside LSU and perhaps along the interstate or traffic routes to the game. All I'm saying is they aren't doing anything to stand out from the crowd in that area of town with all that's going on there, and so, as with almost everything of the like here, once the newness wears off and the people who are drawn to it realize it's just average same old same old, it's going to be off to something else new and shiny down the road that gets their attention and ends up doing the same thing to them. To be special, you have to be special, and there's just nothing special going on to my knowledge, so it will not have staying power IMO...

I just don't see many people walking outside of Whole Foods and saying to themselves, "Hey, let's go to Walk On's huh?" Neither do I see that with the decision making that goes into looking at the plethora of good food options in the area and picking Walk On's instead. It's just not the area for that long term.


Champs? Failed
Mugshots? Failed

Lesson... The area isn't the place for average to below average sports bars...
