From what I've heard the reason the "x" is there is from when ancestors made the trip from Nova Scotia to south Louisiana they couldn't spell their last name so they signed an "x". Don't know if there is any truth to that but that is the myth I heard.

Yeah, that's bullshite.

It's as simple as the difference between "Smith" and "Smiths". To make a plural form of '-eau', you just add an 'x'.

Mr. Boudreau is one of the Boudreaux.

Notice other Acadian names don't have that issue, only ones ending in '-eau'. Hebert, Bernard, Babin, Bourgeois, Broussard, etc... don't have Xs.

Luckily my Acadian family name ends in '-ouard', so we don't have that problem.

As far as Acadians being illiterate, that's disproven by the fact that the way they established themselves in Louisiana was through extensive letter writing. After the Expulsion, they were dispersed all over the place. Joseph Broussard (dit Beausoleil) landed in Dominica first, then came to Louisiana. Once they moved from the Vacherie area over to the St. Martinville/Attakapas area, they started a letter writing campaign to get the other Acadians to join them.

We not as dumb as people tink.

Edited..
Thanks for the catch KCMO, didn't go back far enough to check champs and runner-ups. Just corrected OP.

The SEC has had a team in CWS in 36 of the last 40 years, including 22 in a row and 29 of the last 30.

This year may make 23 in a row (A&M, LSU, Florida, and Vanderbilt are strong possibilities, with Arkansas, Ole Miss and Auburn as darkhorses.)

The UNO player who hit a grand slam in the regional final was the son of a State alum. I was at that game, and that made it hurt a little bit more.

No one likes playing at the Met, or going to games there. Omaha is actually a pretty fun town and a great stadium to play at/attend.
