We attended in the early 90s when it was at the Belmont.
It was dated dump in the hood then, and now it's worthless vacant land in the hood.
It's hard to believe that place was once a destination for stars (including Clark Gable and others) visiting Baton Rouge. Then again, the Beatles stayed at a hotel/motel on Chef Highway when they played Tad Gormley.

In the mid and late seventies, believe it or not, Bonnabel High School dominated this.
The 2 years I went to the convention, '75, '76, East Jefferson crushed all competition in the competitive events.

Asians from Baton Rouge High are probably close to even money bets
I went 3x in the 90s. They had one night where they had a dance you could attend, as well as a game / activity room at same time.
I went to dance. 90 percent of the guys went to the game room.
Dance was like shooting fish in a barrel…

The Congress Inn. Beatles management had them booked to stay way out in the sticks instead of a ritzy hotel downtown (like the Monteleone, Roosevelt, or the old St. Charles Hotel) because it might be easier to keep mobbing fans away. It didn't work.

Yep, I remember Mrs. Dillman, who I had for geometry in my only year at EJ (79-80). And MAO was a BIG deal at EJ during that time.
EJ also kicked butt at the Foreign Language Fest at USL in Lafayette at that time. They won overall in 1980 (I went for French) and in 1981 when I went representing Grace King.
I can still remember every line of those two French poems I had to recite...
