Wasn't that the name at the time of the hotel at Acadian off I-10?


Maybe. I'm pretty sure there used to be a hotel behind the Waffle House on College Dr. too. think it was a Howard Johnson's when I was a kid in the '70s, but for some reason I thought it changed to a Travelodge at one point.

There was definitely a hotel there.
Sidenote: I used to park there and stalk my ex gf who had just got a job hostessing at the 'brand new to BR' Hooters. She be like "I'm going home after my shift." Needless to say I busted her easily cheating(leaving with some dudes from the restaurant and going to bars) and ended that shite.

And next door to the Howard Johnson's on the Interstate side was another larger motel. I can't recall the name of it, but the bar inside was named Beefeaters.

Chris' steakhouse used to be a nightclub called The Cockpit.
