re: Bama fan beaten to death in Ponchatoula Pub

ETA: to the guy above me, someone who was there is claiming the deceased was trying to remove a drunk girl he knew from the bar and she wasn't happy about leaving.

Two big fellows thought it was something it wasn't, jumped him, and then hit him while he was the ground because they're trashy and that's what trash does.

Partly True.
the deceased and his family were all there partying, some of the fam left early, but the niece stayed and was belligerently drunk attempting to hit on multiple women in the bar, and for whatever reason was not cut off or removed, apparently the assailants took exception to what was going on and had words with the deceased, he spit in the face and swung on Azia, azia hit back, he fell and hit his head, they each hit once more and walked for the door. I dont think it was exactly self defense, but it wasnt the brutal murder these people are making it out to be either. This was a bar fight gone bad, in an over capacity establishment that probably could have been prevented if the bouncers, bartenders, and the fire marshal were proactively doing their jobs.

also, this is the view there this morning.
