Grew up near BR, now currently work and live in BR. Plan on working here until i retire. Having visited some family members in Miss, Tenn, etc, i'm happy every time i make it back here. I'd probably like the Houston area but i'm happy where i am

To each his own. LSU makes the city worth living in for us, and i enjoy it along with some good restaurants and shopping is easy being close to whatever is needed

It is pretty strange. It is normally because they have other issues, but want to blame the city they live in. Their life will suck elsewhere also

Or maybe they just don't like BR and have found another place to live that suits them better

I did

I still live here but I plan on moving after I graduate

And yea, I'd move back. It's cool to hate on BR and I get that, but I like this city. There is nothing wrong with BR.

Probably the case for a lot of people, but there are plenty who talk shite about the city just to do it

That doesn't apply to him, who started the thread. Your need to post in every BR hate thread is pretty strange

I happen to be online now and the thread pops up. I don't go looking for them to specifically post in.



Your need to point that out is pretty strange though.

Honestly the whole BR sucks thing reeks of NOLA and Lafayette insecurity

We get it, your towns are sooooooo awesome. Why do you need to attack BR so much if your cities are such superior bastions of culture?

Grew up there. Will never move back to BR or Louisiana for that matter. There's nothing there to give me a reason to move back

Nice. It certainly isn't the greatest place I have been, but family and friends trump all for me. I can travel when I get bored.

Well everyone knows I hate BR and only return to visit family and friends. That's no secret


I understand that many love the city and enjoy living there and I can respect that. To each their own. But don't get upset because I personally think the place sucks. I'm entitled to my own opinion as are you.

Did you ever visit Nashville? That may change your opinion.

I don't see what the draw is to BTR. What is there to do besides LSU and sit in traffic? I get that it's your home, and there can only be one home, but still...
