Maybe there's a giant hole because there isn't any demand...
Unless this thing is going to be like Sea World, it will be a "one n done" type of thing for locals and there aren't enough tourists visiting Shreve-a-dise to sustain it.
They will be living off steeply discounted school field trips in less than 2 years.

I don't think you realize how many people come to Shreveport for the casinos.
And plenty of people (locals) go to Sci Port all the time, multiple times a year, which is right across the road. I know we do. This could be easily paired with a trip to Sci Port and the Aquarium.

I have small children, if it's still in business in 4 years I'll probably have to go to this redneck fish tank 6 times a year. Did you know there's an alligator park off Greenwood Road? Me either, until my friends with kids told me.
