Hayell to the naw. That's my jam. Id be ok with just "Down the Bayou" if it came to it.

Okay. I have met native Louisianans who had a Brooklyn type accent. I thought it was strange because they didn’t sound like the Cajun accents that I hear far more often South of New Orleans. One of my boat captains this year must have been a Yat because he sounded like he was from New York but said he was born and bred in New Orleans. Thanks for educating me on that. Now I know.

He was a Yat. That's pretty exclusive to that one area.

I’d argue the coonasses should run all the way down through St Mary, Terrebone and Lafourche... but pretty good
Fo sho. Plenty of coonasses in SE La. would think there are more rednecks where coonasses are indicated on the map.

I was born and raised in Marrero. Left at 19 for the Army, served 20 years on active duty.
Whenever someone tried to guess where I was from it was always Boston or New York. Never once without me saying something first was Louisiana mentioned. I never understood it.

I haven't researched it but I would guess mass Italian immigration to NO faded after the anti-Mafia riots of the 1890s.

That's fresh coming from the shitshow you made in the Plauche thread.

Not accurate. The entire state should be Purple and Gold.

You must live on the north side of the Moncla bridge.

Cajun, Cooyon, and coonass should be more intertwined. Redneck is spot on
