One of those double strapped bras from a tigerland girl is a pretty big rip off when you do it right

Ahh, the OT is so predictable. This thread is full of legitimate answers, yet Walk Ons has been mentioned multiple times.
There are few things worse than the hipster-mentality that permeates people who hate anything that is mainstream just so they can be edgy.
FWIW, I'm not a huge fan of Walk Ons, but to list it in this thread is comical.

Walk-On's isn't hated on for being "mainstream", it's hated on because their food is just ok and offer small portions for what you get. Granted, there aren't too many places that offer those kinds of menu items near LSU. However, there is that kind of stuff relatively close to Town Center and the one in New Orleans. It's just "ok", and it being named the "#1 Sports Bar in America" by ESPN caused a massive amount of backlash due to it's now assured status as being perpetually "overrated".

Its hate is 100% due to its popularity.
The food is average, but it didn't get to where it is as a company by being a rip-off.

I used to work near walkons on coursey
Their lunch menu consisted of 12-15 dollar entrees when chimes across the street bad similar items for 7-10 bucks
That's why I listed walkoons
I couldn't care less how "popular" it is
I just think it's overpriced for what it is, definition of a ripoff

I like Walk-ons.
Pretty sure it's a Texaco on Jefferson/Bocage, not a Chevron, and yes it's the most expensive gas station in BR bar none. If you fill up there, you're either an idiot, don't pay for gas, or you're so rich you don't pay attention to gas prices.
And to all the idiots saying Riverside towing, quit parking like a moron. And don't tell me they tow you when you park legally. I went to college too, never got towed, and the only friend of mine that was ever towed was a doofus. It's your own fault you got towed.
The correct answer is CATS and EBR Public School taxes, with Entergy close behind. These two aren't choices, like the rest of the things being mentioned here.

I see someone hasn't been since been since it changed owners. Place had a total overhaul and prices went down significantly on bottle beers and mixed drinks. The daily specials are legit. Tues is my favorite with $5 burger and fries(real burger not a $1 lakeside special) with $2 domestic pints. Such a ripoff
Well yeah, I don't live in BR. I'm used to it being $3 for a domestic bottle.
But I'll be sure to check it out next time I'm in town.

Dude that lakeside burger is pretty legit for $1. At least it was a couple of years ago.

Who would have thought an associates degree from a CC wouldn't be the door opener to an executive position?

How is Benny's a ripoff? It's $4 for a basic wash
Posted on 7/31/15 at 1:08 pm to PiscesTiger
Taking the loop. Doesn't save any time at all.

I'll throw the RA shop in there as well. That 420 Hi Life Wonderland place (formerly a book store next to a Subway) is going to crush them when they get their shite right. The e vape folks, Kratom users, and glass pipe lovers will eventually see this.

Yeah the loop sucks.
EBRP school system or as they call it in NBR ( slowly annexing most of BR) mandatory day care.

I think he's referring to their other services rendered like oil changes, inspection stickers, and repairs off of diagnostics checks. Oh, and the gas prices at B-Quik
