re: LSU, why have you allowed Baton Rouge to offer the worst crime rate in the SEC?

Someone must have been beat up at Sonic during their lifetime.

Katrina happened. It changed more than Baton Rouge.

Yeah because we can really change the crime rate in Baton Rouge... Why have you allowed your coach to be 400 lbs

He isn't 400 pounds, a-hole. He is pushing 5.

He has a thyroid condition.

That brings me to another point. When we finish the work on I-49 from Fort Smith to Texarkana, that's going to open you all up to tourism from the entire Midwest United States. If I had my way, you all would be paying for our road construction from Fort Smith to Texarkana. I'm not sure why that's relevant to his thread, but it feels relevant to me. I've been wanting to say it to someone from Louisiana, so I'm saying it here.

First off, won't they be scared off by all the violent crime?

Secondly, Louisiana already has easy connections to most of the Midwest and most tourists from that region are just as likely to fly to NOLA. Not really concerned about I-49 connecting to the Ozarks, Kansas City and Omaha.

However, LSU does make frequent trips to Omaha so an argument could be made there. Make it a toll road. That would be fair to all users. More roads should be toll roads. People don't want to pay for shite anymore and at least those who want to use the road would have to pay for it.
