I noticed the Horace Wilkinson bridge sign a year or so ago and wondered if it had just been named or has that always been the bridges name.

until the old bridge is knocked down in favor of another one IN baton rouge, the south bridge IN town will always be the new bridge. forever.

lived in BR my whole life, had NO idea the new bridge had a name

I can't find a link on lsusports.net, but I took this pic last night from my phone. The lights were pulsating different colors. I think it should just be purple and gold lights as shown in the rendering.

The new windows, cleaning the facade, and lighting is only done on one side of the stadium. The stadium looks really odd with so many different themes and style. I hope this is a start to a unifying process.

This seems like a typical Alleva move IMO.

@Duke the lights on the chapel would go blue after significant wins and other special events.

Is the new bridge now the St. Francisville bridge?



No, that's A new bridge. When you're in St. Francisville, it's just "the bridge".

When you're in Baton Rouge, the I-10 bridge is "the new bridge".




Now for another gripping question, is Port Allen "the west bank"? Plaquemine? Or is it just from Ama to Belle Chase?

Port Allen is. I have seen people make the wb hand signal

Or maybe it is just referred to as the west side.

According to Wiki the H.W. signs were added in 2010 along with other signs and new paint stripes. I never noticed.

Glad to know I am not going crazy. I have crossed that bridge every M-F for the last 15 years
