Ok. I just realized that the last dozen or so posts went completely over my head.

It's about an hour from Ruston. They have a Horseshoe, Diamond Jack's, El Dorado, and a brand new Margaritaville. I hope all of y'all making the trip over have a safe and enjoyable time in north Louisiana. FYI, if you stay in Shreveport/Bossier go to Superior Grill and enjoy a frozen margarita and thank me later.

after the last health inspection i saw of Superior Grill I wouldn't suggest anyone go there

Good thing all gambling is done on the river, where it is legal (yeah, right).

Pond would be good for you.

Is that a placekicker joke ?

You buy a hat like that I bet you get a free bowl of soup.

Looks good on you, though.

Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life son.

Wow.

Well, you can say what you you want about me, but we're not going to sit here and listen to you badmouth the United States of America.

Gentlemen!

Don't cross the streams. It would be bad.

Excuse me. are you here with the club?
No, I'm here with the Underhills.

Doodee!!!

I'll be there. Hoot'em Owls!

BTW, Anyone going should REALLY check out the Dawg House Sports Bar. The owner is a good friend from Houston named Bert Davis. Tell him Hambone said hi

just a few blocks from Tech's campus, they recently hired their second location in Starkville, MS

As always when Rice is playing at Louisiana Tech, I'll be there, as it's very convenient to visit my brother in Bossier City and then make the 70 mile drive to Ruston (and it's really convenient this season since it's around the Thanksgiving holiday) and then after the game visit my parents and grandmother in their final resting places.

Visiting the casinos falls into the "fools and their money" category (I've been only once in the last 15 years, and that was more to change money than to gamble), and the prices at the Superior Grill dissuade me from going there.
