Help me out here. Does "dine in crawfish" imply something other than sitting at a table inside a restaurant?

Scuze my ignernce.

house. I can't remember the specifics though about what exactly he did to them that led to them closing down.


The story I heard was that he would come in bitching about margins and force them to order substandard, Sysco premade food instead of homemade refried beans, for example. I know Pepito’s was really good the couple of times, but by the end, the food wasn’t nearly as good, so I always found that to be a plausible explanation.

Ono’s has gone on to reopen a pretty successful place downtown

Most of his food sucks- I don’t eat at his restaurants. Last time I remember going, I got a smoked turkey poboy that might have had 3 thin slices of turkey on it.

Back to the story, though- my daughter said she knows a couple of people that were there, but doesn’t know if Shane was there or not. His dumb arse for letting a bunch of teenagers get shitfaced at his closed restaurant.

buying up all the local papers with his mug shot from his last arrest

I feel like this needs a little more background and explanation.

He didn’t try to buy newspaper companies. He’s nowhere near that level of baller.

He drove around to a bunch of convenience and liquor stores buying stacks of a weekly newspaper that printed local mugshots. I guess he thought if he bought all the papers, then his friends, associates, and neighbors would never find out he tried to hire a nasty $100/hr hooker.

I’m still not sure why Shane was arrested. Unless he was providing alcohol to kids at party

Full disclosure, my daughter is a freshman at Byrd. I asked her about this after school today and she didn’t even know about it.

These kids these days are lacking. I was knee deep in stuff like this freshman year. Thank you Lord!

Is she in the magnet program there or does she take classes with the general population?

Food used to be pretty good back early 2000’s until he started opening a lot of restaurants.

Their crawfish are my least favorite in Shreveport.

Heard about the prostitution story when it happened.

They may call you to the stand in court. Doesn't sell beer with crawfish but supplies alcohol and a place to party to minors?

Just doesn't add up
