A lot of people will say they will, but this guy and Gary Plauche did something about it.

I get it it’s kinda tacky, but did he think he was in a HOA neighborhood ?

We've had some pretty shitty years since Big Lee was killed.

Maybe it is coincidence, but maybe it isn't......

I know when we've done these threads before, people have asked why any self-respecting LSU fan would wear a 1/9/12 t-shirt.

It was a real life episode of When Keeping it Real Goes Wrong.

From what I understand about the guy, he was arrested more than a few times due to his bullying, obnoxious behavior toward many people.

He just fricked with the wrong man one time too many and got his arse killed for it.

Lee was the proverbial schoolyard bully who never grew up mentally to outgrow such behavior.

I've interacted with Big Lee a few times over the years, and I'm certain that the old man next door wasn't the only person who wanted to shoot him.



The response was definitely over the line, but, sometimes, you just frick with the wrong person at the wrong time.

Like when Chris Dean mailed a pipe bomb to teenage Chris Marquis for screwing him over on a CB Radio deal in the early days of the internet.

Hate to hear about anyone getting gunned down in cold blood but I have read many a Big Lee story on this Forum over the years.

The old man when Big Lee said 'Go back inside of I'll spray you with this hose you old SOB! '

I'm not gonna say your statement about that being a murder but there should be no debating that Lee had it coming. When the cop gave that press conference he was the least surprised person on earth.

Yeah, he definitely didn't quite understand the gravity of the situation. He's fricking around with an old man who is riddled with cancer and likely doesn't have long to live and he just got fed up with being harassed by his man-child of a neighbor.

What did he really have to lose shooting that dumbass???

My kids used to use his house as a marker that we were in Old Metairie and near the grandparents' home when we'd visit when they were little.

Died of cancer at age 82 in three years ago without going to trial. After the shooting, the alleged shooter was released on bond after about three months and due to (reportedly) COPD, his trial date was always postponed. (for four years until his death in '22).


Dude straight up got away with killing someone due to his advanced age

I bought that LSU sign in the window, above the Harry Lee sign, and put it on my fence in the back yard. It fell apart from the elements after 3 years...

I wanted one of the Tigers on the palm trees, but I think someone stole them that same night...
