I think the Sportsman is still on Hwy 80 but it might have been renamed The Showdown Saloon.

My grandfather was Lowell Hawkins who owned Lowell's Seafood. It was open from around 1978-1986. I currently work for the Budweiser distributor in Shreveport, That's awesome to see our portfolio now compared to then. This has to be 70s or before as light beer was introduced early 80s. If you are just going to throw these old thing away, I would love to have one from Lowell's Seafood.

Nice piece of N LA history, I'll say early 70's. Been in the El Rancho and the Rockhouse. El Rancho was a mix of rock n roll and country, think Aerosmith then Conway Twitty. It was ok for a white kid to be in the Rockhouse but you better be with somebody cool, hardcore R and B, I remember they had the Brothers Johnson on the jukebox (look it up!)
I saw alot of fights but never saw a shooting but there was a killing at least once or twice a month on the Hwy 80 coorridor.

This is so cool hearing about these old places. Lived in shreveport all my life and never heard of a one of these places. Clearly before my time

I graduated in 83 but you could go in the joints on 80 when you were 15 or 16 and nobody cared.

Was not going to throw them away... I don't have any ties to Shreveport.. I was just interested to see what I had and the value of this (I'm sure different to everyone) I will consider sending you the Lowell's one, let me think on it.. It would have to be later this week or early next before I could send it out..

No light beer either. Early 70s at minimum.
It's from the Anheuser Busch distributor. Bud Light was not introduced until 1982 (Miller Lite came out some time in the mid 70s, I believe). So it could have been any time up till then.
