Are we living in an alternative universe? Like when Biff Tannon gets the Sports Almanac from himself...

We know color. Should we judge by the content of their character?

But he was the most consistent student that just really wanted to get his GED so he can learn a trade at Delgado. The system failed him securing proper transportation

This looks like it happened in the parking lot for what used to be Conns right? Can’t blame top golf for something that happened near by.
Yes you can blame Top Golf. It’s directly next door to Conn’s and over the past 2 years the Siegen TG location changed its whole business approach.
TG started with GOLF enthusiasts… it was people who hit the range locally in BR and NO that wanted to also hang out and watch a game as well. Not a race thing, lots of cool black families you would see golfing around the BTR courses.
Then for whatever reasons they started allowing young blacks to come in and it immediately chased off families, golfers, and anyone with sense.
These kids coming there do not live in this area, they are coming from NBR because it’s the place to be for them.
You invited it and catered to it so you should be also partially responsible for fricking up the immediate areas.

How else do you celebrate match day but with Top Golf and a 9mm?

The city of Baton Rouge annexed this because it was a “money maker” area and the were trying to hurt St George.
The city of Baton Rouge does not have the ability to police the area or provide city fire protection to the area despite them annexing it. It’s basically the Wild West.

It already shrunk by 30 plus percent in geography, population, and tax revenues with St George secession/development.
There is no better indicator of a failed city in BR than when its citizens go through the incredibly difficult (odds stacked against) task of forming a new city within a city.
Coach Sid was supposed to provide some return to normalcy and law and order to BR. He’s a failed Mayor thus far.

I think he’s just trying to make sense of the fact that it is so prevalent. He’s in the Amazon rain forest and you’re asking him how a single tree arrived at a single location, if that makes any sense.

How about we just blame the folks that did it. You think they didn't know it was wrong to shoot guns at each other in the midst of a public location? I'm sure they knew it was a crime, and they did it anyway. That is a crime. Period. They committed a crime, they knew it was a crime, you knew it was a crime and I knew it was a crime. It doesn't have to be a giant socioeconomic discussion about psychological drivers, government policy and local market forces.
We should blame the folks that did it. We should arrest them, prosecute them, and punish them.
But if you want it to stop, you need to deal with the fact that we are dealing with an honor culture problem. Everything in my previous post is explaining how we got there. Question is how we go about trying to fix it.

Should be a rule that you have to hit golf balls to be there. These motherfrickers ruin everything.

And people on this board wonder why alums refuse to let their kids attend LSU. B.R. is such a ghetto today.

Couple of things. Top Golf is figuring out nationally that their venue is a novelty for golfers- most real golfers will go there a few times a year (maybe) but are not going to be regular returning customers. So they rely on the non-golfer to keep coming back, which means you’ll see people from a wide scope of society frequenting the place more often. They need to cater to that group. I don’t blame them, however, they have to do better with filtering out the riff raff. How they do that is up to them but there should be some standards. Second, the area was annexed true but every area that was annexed is being challenged, and it’s not out of the question to see the annexation deemed illegal and retuned back to St George eventually.

B) however afterbeing there for hr or two I start to see bunch of them there not playing but hanging out. I’m like this not a good idea. If you’re not there to hit golf balls and feast on shitty food you really have no business there.
My point exactly.
Top Golf management isn’t telling these people to leave. They are allowing them to loiter and not purchase anything or participate in golf at all.
Look at the Houston Rodeo, same song and dance. You can make it $$$$ all you want. They won’t buy anything and just stand there and cause trouble.
Make them leave.
