re: Where or who is your favorite bartender?

Oh man the Happy Note. Tommy was one of the owners I think, and the resident bookie. Tall lanky bartender was Jack and he poured the stiffest drink in BR. Tommy took me and another regular on a "Collection" ride once without telling us what we were getting into, nobody died.

Man, Tiger Lair is a place I've not thought about in years. Used to shoot pool there, 2nd floor, it was the coolest vibe in Tigertown. The only other place in that area we went to was on across Nicholson, maybe it was called Yesterday's. Late 70's, early 80s.

Red Oaks checking in.
Another Red-Oaker here.
- Belaire was new high school and full of hot arse gals wearing B Bennet hip huggers and Halter Tops. We smoked pot at the bleachers.
- We hung out at the North Sherwood Park on the weekend blaring Led Zeppelin and getting high.
- We threw the Frisbee around a lot, played ultimate frisbee before there was such a thing and way before frisbee golf.
- Rock and Roll Clubs (J Club, Sports Page, Papa Joes, etc) were the place to be seeing great local bands like Pot Liquor, Blue Max and Maniaxe.
- The LSU Assembly Center was a top 5 tour stop for concerts. Every weekend it was; Pink Floyd, Zeppelin, Bad Company, Queen, Eagles, etc.
- Fastpitch Softball was a huge sport for boys and men's leagues. Huge league at Forest Park.
BR was a great place to grow up and raise a family.
:cheers:

Throw in a little Boudreaux stock (Lafayette area) and some old school Hemphill stock (Arkansas) and you really had something. :cheers:
Old man Jenkins had some really good stock over by Covington also.

I will share what I know from raising Pits back in the 70's. We took great precautions to ensure the dogs remained under control at all times. The only way to get them to release the locked jaw, besides a bullet, is the proper use of a "Break Stick". We carried this with us anytime we handled the dogs. The stick is like a wood hammer handle that is whittled down to a wedge like an Oyster knife. Grab dog from behind by scruff if the neck, straddle the dog, squeeze your legs very tight above his hip, pull up to get his front legs off the ground, jam the stick near the back of his teeth and pry like you are opening an Oyster, continuing to pull up. When he releases keep the stick jammed in his mouth and keep off the ground. This has been the method for 100 years on farms and in the country when Pits where actually working dogs.

Other than Popeyes,
My work travels takes me to SW La. a lot and I am always on the lookout for good Fried Chicken. Some of the best have been random gas stations I stopped to refill at. Recently discovered Mama's in the Opelousas area. Solid Chicken, killer good huge arse Cathead Biscuits and as as bonus, righteous Gizzard & Liver boxes with Fried Okra. :drool:
It's worth my detour into the um, suburbs of Opelousas :lol:
