Could a TG facility fit at the driving range off seigen in BR? Or maybe a slightly scaled down version if the land isn't big enough

If you could put one in City Park in NOLA where the existing peice of shite driving range is, that would kill. I know it would never happen...

That pos driving range at city park that you talk about is about to become run by the PGA and become one of the best practices facilities in the country

I think it needs to be on the BR side of NOLA or the NOLA side of BR - and BR has more space immediately East of the city to park a large facility (along I-10 between Highland and Exit 173?). BR has a lot of people in the target market. LSU Frat boys, doctors along the Bluebonnet/Essen corridor, politicians, engineers. NOLA has the tourists, but IMO the types of tourists going to New Orleans aren't seeking the corporate feel of something like Top Golf?

I hope so. Wasn't sure if they were building a brand new one for the new course or renovating the existing range.

First buccees and now top golf. Y'all are trying too hard to be like Texas. At least Alamo draft house fell through.

I honestly thought Top Golf was that arcade game you see in bars.

Place looks cool.

You can go rain or shine, decent priced beers, good food, etc. $40 an hour gets pricy if you're by yourself, but split 4-5 ways, it's nothing.

I rarely play any golf anymore. I struggled to get even considered avg and have yet to go to one.

But if one were built in New Orleans, if no doubt go nitro with the hommies every so often.


If even visit the one in BR

We've got one 5 minutes down the road. Then another 15 down the road. And a 3rd about 30 minutes down the road. We go pretty often. Just went yesterday after work cause it was beautiful out.
