The Bayou Classic is the annual college football game between the Grambling State University Tigers and the Southern University Jaguars, first held under that name in 1974 at Tulane Stadium in New Orleans, Louisiana, although the series itself actually began in 1932. Since 1990 the game has been held the final Saturday in November (i.e., the Saturday after Thanksgiving) at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.
Cajuns vs. Coonasses, or a different demographic?
I see there no gun signs and no guns allowed policy worked real well.
It started when public skools criminalized Moses and Jesus. No one told them it was wrong to murder people. Ice Cube and Doggy Doo have been telling them all day and night it's a good thing.
Only one dead, ten wounded? After the Bayou Classic? I’m surprised.
NO is worth going to just for the WWII museum. Absolutely wonderful. There are areas to avoid, as in any city, but having such a tourist draw as the French Quarter will draw the riff raff. Situational awareness is key.
Why is someone shooting leaves in New Orleans?
Over here man
I love the Desire Oyster Bar on the corner of Bourbon and Bienville (it’s connected to the Royal Sonesta). If you don’t have the time to get out to Breaux Bridge, the crawfish etoufee there is pretty good, and if you sit at one of the open windows, you can watch the show outside.

2 Bourbon Street shooting victims told family they saw argument before gunfire

Two Bourbon Street shooting victims told relatives they saw two men arguing with each other moments before the gunfire erupted early Sunday (Nov. 27). One man started to walk away, family members recounted, then turned back and opened fire.
Twelve hours later after the mass shooting, Jessie Ben of Lafayette was preparing to take her daughter, Brittany Ben, 20, to a hospital to check on the two bullets that remain inside her body. Brittany Ben was struck by five bullets, and her nephew suffered a broken pelvic bone from a gunshot.
“She’s in a lot of pain right now,” Jessie Ben said of her daughter. “She’s in and out of it.”
Jessie Ben said her grandson, Deion Ben, 21, remains in a New Orleans hospital being treated for a gunshot wound to his groin area, she said. “He’s in a lot of pain also,” she said.
One relative who was in New Orleans with Brittany and Deion Ben said she was down the street from them at the time of the shooting. She didn’t hear gunshots but saw people running. Then, she got a phone call telling her that Brittany and Deion had been shot.
This relative, who asked that her name be withheld for her safety, said she ran toward Iberville Street. Brittany Ben was already in an ambulance, but Deion was still on the sidewalk — bloody and barely able to talk. “I was devastated,” the relative said.
Jessie Ben said she got the call after 1 a.m. to hurry to New Orleans as her daughter and grandson, both Lafayette residents who were in New Orleans for the Bayou Classic, had been shot on Bourbon Street. Brittany Ben, who studies nursing at Southern University in Baton Rouge, had been shot five times, including three times in the chest and twice in the arm, Jessie Ben said. Deion Ben, who works at a Lafayette car lot and is Brittany’s nephew, was shot in the groin area, a hit that broke his pelvic bone, Jessie said.
Later Sunday, hospital staff were about to send Deion Ben home. But when he got up and began to get dressed, he started bleeding, requiring the attention of a trauma doctor, Jessie Ben said.
Brittany Ben was treated at a New Orleans hospital and released with two bullets still inside her body, Jessie said. “They let me take her home,” Jessie said.
She planned to take Brittany to another hospital out of concern that the bullets could cause further damage. “We don’t know what those bullets are going to do,” she said.
