Wait, are you making the claim that student safety is more important than social justice programs?!?!?

How dare you.

I know.

It's an asinine idea.

Feelings > Reality, right?

Damn Mellow closing hits me pretty hard. Had some great times there. That entire area will soon be a crime infested shithole



RIP Melloween

The north side of campus could be amazing if they'd just bulldoze everything from the north gates to Downtown.

It won't happen as long as we have SJW's leading BR and LSU, though.

Who are "they" in this scenario? Government? Contractors? Because the properties in the bottoms are some of the oldest in Baton Rouge and alot of them have family ownership going back to reconstruction era, or so I've heard. Never in a million years would enough of the properties be sold off to redevelop the whole area.

Their bar was like a magnet for lameass choads during the day

It looks like Mellow Mushroom is closing a lot of stores. I searched on Google, and the first page had multiple recent stories of closures. Are they in that bad of shape financially?

No idea, but their food quality has slipped a great deal over the past 5-10 years. That's how it almost always goes when restaurants start expanding and franchising. But with so many markets getting new pizza places to compete with MM, not very good timing for a downturn in quality.

And I'm speaking about quality at the MM near me. I know quality can be store-dependent, but the one near me makes pretty bad pizzas, and they're nothing like the MM pizzas I used to get 20 years ago.

Thank you Mayor Broome.

Is she responsible for the locations in other cities closing, too?

Are you thinking she caused the one on Burbank to lose so much money they had to close those other locations down?

I doubt it.

You're messing with the 'Mayor Broome is the reason for everything bad' narrative.

Usually when an originally non urban business goes urban it spells the end. It’s just the way it is.
