re: Why does south Louisiana hate North Louisiana?

Seems like both sides are insecure. They are lying to themselves thinking that their part is better than the other when in reality. It’s the same damn thing.

Bc they are short people.


They wear gold chains and white rubber boots and have an inferiority complex.

South Louisiana has some very serious problems, but let’s not forget that it also has some serious draws, some of which are entirely unique to the region, and not replicated anywhere else in the world.

What unique experiences exist in North Louisiana other than Poverty Point? Seriously, I want to know.

I’m not saying North Louisiana isn’t a bad place to live. I just want to know why I should visit it rather than visit some other part of the state or country.

Those are great arguments to live there, but not what I asked. My comment string was motivated by someone who was appalled that folks from South Louisiana rarely, if ever, visit North Louisiana. I asked, well, why should they?

No one has answered that yet with any answer other than Shreveport having a loop. We get it, Shreveport has relatively competent transportation infrastructure. I know when I’m choosing vacation destinations, I mostly care how easily I can navigate rush hour traffic

Huey P. Long and his northern cronies. I find Baton Rouge to be more like North Louisiana than the rest of South Louisiana and have come to the conclusion that it was because of this.

For many years no alcohol in most of North Louisiana, with a few notable exceptions. This is why Hadacol was such a great seller up there.

They do, but they just do it with family and friends at home rather than at a bar or outdoor festival. So, as an "outsider", you don't get to experience it. In South Louisiana, everyone parties out in public, so outsiders can access the party and become a part of it

I was a bartender in Shreveport for awhile and this is false. People do party in public quite prolifically. Just as much as I have seen while at LSU and in New Orleans or any where in South Louisiana.
