Lucky you getting out before the initial decline and the post-Katrina declination.

Because of my rabid L.S.U. background, me and my cute Irish Squeeze actually tried BR on for size and endured for six years. (2014-2020)

Unfortunately, both the City and the LSUAD could not provide enough of what we wanted long term. LSU mirrored the decline of the City with their very own set of fan alienating policies and rules. (Ticket price increases, tailgating-parking restrictions, combined City of Baton Rouge-East Baton Rouge Parish-State of Louisiana horrific traffic management after every L.S.U. home game and of course the simultaneous in-game neutering of TGBFTL, while allowing the rapid decline of the entire Tiger Band program)

We got the hell out in 2020 for sandy beaches and warm weather year round.

BTW, I don't really miss anything at all except for the Louisiana Food ((No place over here knows what real Leidenheimer French Bread is) and being close to L.S.U. for basketball in the PMAC and the 1-2 "Big Night Games a Season" where the Tiger Stadium atmosphere comes just a little bit close to what it used to be.

Oh yeah, I miss the Bowling Alley in the Union too........
