No. I think this is all just a big body dumping ground.

Most times when I go over I think the same thing and wonder where.

The name does not come from alcohol. Instead, "Whiskey" is an anglicized corruption of the Choctaw word uski, which means river cane or canebrake. The area was historically thick with native river cane.


I always heard it was a haven for bootleggers during Prohibition.

I think it’s one of the more unsettling stretches of interstate in the country especially at night and I’m always thankful to finally see the lights of the Horace Wilkinson bridge.


I’m not a woo woo person but there’s just some bad spirits there

I still remember that Derek Todd Lee dumped one of his victims under the whiskey bay bridge.


Two.

Carrie Lynn Yoder and Pam Kinamore were both found in Whiskey Bay.

You know damned well what everyone from South Louisiana thinks about when crossing that bridge.

No. Generally that’s around the time I start hearing the techno music pumping from Lafayette and I’m too distracted.

I quit thinking about alcohol several years ago except sometimes I do think about stopping to get a daiquiri.

I don’t plan on doing it. That would be delusional.

I usually just think “frick, I’m almost in Lafayette.”

I always thought about a semi losing its brakes and plowing me into the water.
