Walk-Ons moving headquarters to Atlanta!

Oh boy

Louisiana folks already have a complex with Atlanta.

Our previous business-hostile goobernor ran them off.

They should take their shitty imported shrimp with them.

This has been in the works. Nice try though

I was always under the impression that walk-on's became popular at LSU because it was the perfect fit, i.e. right next to campus, lots of room to park/throw parties, what the name represents (love, passion, determination), good looking staff, fun environment, etc. . It gave many people a place and a reason to party / tailgate prior to or after a campus event and it allowed people to hang out / relax during a slow day.

Adding a new orleans location right next to the super dome made alot of sense because all you are doing is replacing the affiliated words LSU with Saints. In fact, you can recreate the "walk-on" mentality with any fan base. If done correctly, I thought walk-on's would flourish around every campus in north america.

Why in the hell did walk-ons turn into a chill's or applebees or red robbin for that matter. What the fk are they doing putting a walk ons in corporate town center or in houma or gonzalez? Them doing this has honestly ruined it for me. Its obviously all about investor greed and sleeping at the wheel, fk'em move to ATL so we don't have to deal with the chapter 11.

Where is our new business friendly governor? Is he working to secure their stay in Louisiana?

The previous governor literally shut businesses down without any sort of due process. I make no comment on the new governor but your comment, while not surprising, is an example of how steeped in your ideology you are. If you wanted to criticize a governor who was not a friend to business you had a chance for the past 4 years. He helped TERMINATE lots of small businesses in this state while allowing some (walmart) to remain open. I bet you loved it when he was at the country club chumming it up without a mask while directing everyone else to wear a mask (without the power to do so).

I think perhaps we just need to be honest with ourselves here. If you own a company that’s looking to go national, Baton Rouge Louisiana is not even remotely close in terms of infrastructure to do so as is a hub like Atlanta, or Dallas, Houston, Chicago, Denver, or the like. It’s just not where you want to be located for that to take place. It’s the same reason why Raising Canes moved operations to Dallas, and Popeyes to Atlanta. Not only is this state not really business friendly, it also lacks the infrastructure that places like mentioned above have in spades for distribution, and that’s why you find all of the other headquarters located in places like that. It’s not a coincidence.
