I agree. No one is bashing Louisiana. We are just saying that Louisiana has no standing to bash Alabama.


Really? Having a unique culture, with world-class food, distinct music, and a lot more places to party makes this a slam dunk win for Louisiana.

Heck, you can have more fun in NOLA alone than in the entire state of Alabama.

I'm not trying to be mean here, it's just that Alabama doesn't stand out from it's neighbors. The line between Tennessee, Mississippi, Georgia, and Florida is blurred. Same food, same music, nearly the same accents...

Louisiana's unique culture is why tourists like to visit it, but wouldn't want to live there. I love NOLA on a once a year weekend trip, but would die before I moved there.

Again, I'm not bashing Louisiana. I'm just saying that it is no better than Alabama.

Very true. Nice to come visit. Not to live. Like Mexico has unique culture and people that speak funny. Still wouldnt want to live or raise a family there.

world-class food
No doubt! La. wins hands down! (except for gumbo. Gumbo in Mobile/Gulf Shores is muchg better than La. gumbo, to me. Not watered down like soup)

quote:

distinct music,


Very true. Mobile has Jimmy Buffet. He has a distinct sound! I'll give you that one too! La. wins on music.

quote:

and a lot more places to party


Outside of New Orleans, La. is a horrible place to party. New Orleans is fun to party for a night or so, but you might get murdered.
Alabama bars stay open 24/7. BIG PLUS! No closing at 2:00am like pussies. Plus you can party on the beach. Dont see as many people flocking to New Orleans in the Summer as you do Gulf Shores. Plus Alabama started Mardi Gras! I'd say its a push.

nearly the same accents...


pssst, most all other southern states sound the same. La. sounds like you need a passport. Like a poor mans franch.


Again, I have lived in both for long periods of time and hate to say, but Alabama has a much better quality of life. Alot cleaner and more to do. Just a fact.
