Lake Cliff - A bar near the water plant where in the 1950s La. Hayride stars like Johnny Horton, Claude King, Red Sovine, and even Elvis played. In the 1970s it became a prog-country hangout, where Willie Nelson, Hank Williams, Jr. David Allan Coe, and others would perform after their shows at Hirsc...

Hard to believe, but despite hair plugs, dye, and face lifts, Nick is older than the Bear, who seemed ancient at the time, when he croaked....
At least the ULL tradition of the 12th fan remains intact. Most of you are likely familiar with the Texas A&M tradition of the Twelfth Man, where the student body stands to show they are ready to come to the aid of the team. But how many know about the equally honorable ULL tradition of the Twelf...

Off topic, but does anyone remember a Chinese restaurant called Shing's on Government back in the 1980s? Edit: Per Google Street View, the location (3669 Government) is now the site of Cajun Eats....
The other guys said 60 years. Now you are going back to Huey Long. That's nearly 100 years. Is that your argument? Huey Long favored LSU (the top state university then as now) so your school's athletic program deserves welfare today....
Ha! Attack the messenger. ULL fans hate for their dirty secret to be exposed. Despite claims about LSU, no numbers are provided to back them up. Well, what we do know is that for the last fiscal year the ULL athletics taxpayer subsidy exceeded its closest rival (La. Tech) by an amount 1-1/2 times g...

The most recent (pre-Covid) numbers available as reported by the state auditor's office show th...

I used to know a guy who did marriage and family counseling. Though he never named names, he once told of a case where the husband was fricking both the mother-in-law and sister-in-law. At least keeping it all in the family....

Three of the greatest influencers of 20th century popular music had ties to Shreveport. Hank Williams and Elvis Presley gained stardom as members of KWKH's Louisiana Hayride program held at th Municipal Auditorium. Huddie "Lead Belly" Ledbetter was born in nearby Mooringsport and played on the stree...
