People in Louisiana are inherently unhappy and negative. That’s one of the reasons I got the hell out. It’s one of the most unhapppystates in surveys that are done. People vote against their own self interests and then bitch about their lot in life.

Speak for yourself
Perhaps it’s just you that’s miserable

“ people in Louisiana or inherently unhappy and negative”

As someone who’s been to a lot of different areas of this country, I say BS. People in this state are always finding reasons to socialize and enjoy life. Be it two guys fishing off the boat in the swamp or 100 people at a crawfish ball.

There’s a mighty big difference between frustration over a sports team and frustration over your life.

You are correct young man. When Saban first came to LSU he said the same thing. In order to be successful in BR the negativity had to stop. I am sure every fan base has it's number negative fans but not like LSU. When the stadium was voted on to enlarge it to 102k. We were in the lime light and coming off if Sabans recruiting. Les rode that wave until it crashed 3 yrs. ago. We were selling out most games before than. Mean while the economy of the state was doing just ok. Our crooked politicians didn't invest the states money into diversifying our business base. Instead they basically stoke the money in the form of the General Fund. Just look at the roads in La. BR is prime example. People avoid this state because of the I-10 f-up coming off the BR bridge. There is only one way thru BR. I moved to Houston because I couldn't do it anymore. Commuting from Covington to Houston weekly. Until you get a honest governor who will Drain The Louisiana Political Swamp, you will stay third world. Saban was right about the negativity.

Meh, we were also named the happiest state not long ago beating out Hawaii. I think you may confusing a handful of morons on this site with reality. Most of the people I know that live here are quite happy. If living here wasn't for you, no worries, we live in a big country/world. However, equating Slippy or MUNCHROCKS or SleauxJeaux to the real world doesn't compute for me. Besides, after 2016, do you really trust polls? Hell, CFN has us ranked behind A&M and Kentucky this morning. Polls are meaningless in these times. Just my .02.

You could not be more wrong. I travel the country for work. You’re truly 100% absolutely wrong! I’ve been to every single state and most noteworthy countries. Louisiana is the most joyful state I’ve even stepped foot into. It’s the people that make it such an amazing place to live. It’s not the weather or anything else, it’s the joy of life that I see here everyday.

Just can’t believe how clueless you are.
