Just want to say that after 4 years in northmost Louisiana(wannabe Texas) and 5 years in West Virginia, I'm headed home.
I've tried to be an ambassador to the state, I've tried explaining the term coon arse to northerners ,and I have even tried cooking gumbo and jambalaya for the yanks, but I don't feel like you can see what South Louisiana has to offer unless it is your home.
I grew up in Iberville Parish and went to high school and college in Baton Rouge. I have spent many nights there wishing there were more to do, that it wasn't so hot, or that I wouldn't get car-jacked at the wrong Shell station, but one thing I hope everyone on here appreciates is that God has never made man as willing to help, comfort, or teach fellow man as He did a coon arse.
Long post short, I have been aching to come home since I have left, and I come home in 3 weeks, with every intention of eating, drinking, and reminiscing any chance I can get.
Geaux Tigers!

My wife has a job in Baton Rouge, and I have a shift job in Lafayette. So both places actually. Not ideal but better than 5 and 1/2 months of winter.

I have to agree completely...I never realized how much I liked louisiana until I lived elsewhere...
I may have to live out of state for a while, but I will never again be too far away to hit saturday night in tiger stadium...

Didn't want the post to get deleted. I don't post often, and this seemed common practice from my years of reading the site.

Yeah my username is shite, but it was 9 years ago and I was drunk when I coined this gem. Also, I am too darn cheep for the 10$ to change it.
