I know i did, which is why i moved out after i graduated.

BR (and Louisiana in general) had nothing more for me so i moved away after graduating college.

True

While BR has its problems, people who bitch about how bad it is have probably never been to a real shithole -- such as, for example, Jackson MS

LSU sports and campus are 20-30 minutes away, in the worst case scenario

Lots of good restaurants that are reasonably priced, and there is variety in the food served

Decent value on real estate

For a southern city, a solid percentage of the population doesn't sound like Larry the Cable Guy

Mild winters

Damn, I don't think there is a place on this earth that would make me feel this way. I have to know where you are living or at least what you do on a daily basis to keep you interested in waking up each day.
