My brother (who played at Tulane) lives there, plays as much lax as possible and I know they're always looking for more laxers to join up.
I'll be back there in late Feb for the tourney. Good times to say the very least!

As a laxer since a young age, I love that lacrosse has made its way down to Louisiana…I am currently working down here on the oil spill (for NOAA, not BP!), and I see no trace of lax…I would think with the great French names down here (some of my favorites that I see a lot of from working on the spill- Terrabone Bay, Thibodaux, Chandeleur Sound) that lacrosse would go over well…I would not be able to play in the summer here-way too hot, but you could start very early in the spring…I could imagine lots of mud-pit games down here too…it seems like there is plenty of oil money to support lacrosse in New Orleans…I can see why obesity is a problem here, the food is incredible, I haven't had a bad meal here (including my gator jambalaya)
It's great to see the New Orleans Lacrosse Club in existence, I am already trying to get Jim Lyon's Army down here for the spring tournament when it's not so damn hot

I'm originally Livingston, LA but now in the hotbed of lacrosse in America…Annapolis, MD. My daughter is 12 and has been playing lax for 4 years already. It's bigger than football up here in Anne Arundel county Maryland. There are no middle school programs, but the county recs and parks runs a county-wide season. Then some of the better players play during the summer on elite, tryout-based teams. My daughter has been playing on one of these for two years now. I absolutely love lax!!! I also absolutely love football, but since they don't cross-over each other I can love both. I'm so excited to see South Louisiana get into the laxing thing. I tnink it will be HUGE there once it gets rolling. Please contact me if you need any lax news. mayomd@comcast.net

It tastes *exactly* like blackened chicken, but can be a little tougher depending on the age of the gator. It's absolutely delicious, and if you're ever in south Louisiana, you must try it.

This happens when LSU plays Florida. . http://www.endlesssimmer.com/wp-content/uploads… My fraternity served a gator sauce piquante (like a bisque)

Alligators aren't exactly common, but you can find them in South-central to southwest Louisiana. People don't hunt them for sport here. Ever. They are used for food, and their skins are used for boots, bags, etc. To further address a stereotype, they'll take the gator to business to process the meats, the skins, and to make the apparel. It's very uncommon to make your own clothes and food. Most gator is purchased and served at restaurants (my favorites: The Chimes, Walk-Ons Bistraux, Ralph and Kacoos). In other words, it's not like the Waterboy where whatever falls off the bug zapper is whats for dinner.
