Alright, people! Send in the Rodeo Clowns! It’s time to
quit taking myspace pictures of yourself and “Cowboy Up!” Put away
those fancy pinky rings and meterosexual hair products, because you
ain’t going to need them at the rodeo. That’s right. Rodeo! You too
much of crybaby to ride a two ton ornery bull, boy?! Well, then, you
might want to sit this one out. It’s the 57th Annual Mid Winter Fair
Rodeo at Blackham Coliseum and it is going to be off the proverbial chain. There will be bucking broncos, crazy rodeo clowns, real-life
cowboys, bull riders, calf ropers, and all that other stuff that you’ve
come to expect at the rodeo. This event is sanctioned by the
Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association, so that means you get genuine
Pro Cowboys doing real cowboy stuff…and not posers tossing dirt on the
legend of Tuff Hedeman. Come on out to
the Blackham Coliseum the weekend of Jan. 15 – 18 and get a taste of
the country. For more information, go to www.harperrodeo.com or
call 482-5738.
David Calhoun and Elizabeth “EB” Brooks are the first two employees of Lafayette Central Park Inc., the nonprofit charged with turning Lafayette Consolidated Government’s 100-acre Johnston Street Horse Farm property into a passive public park. Calhoun was named executive director, and Brooks is director of planning and design.
There will soon be a whole lot of shakin’ going on at Benny’s Sportshack Supplement Depot, a new concept by Opelousas native Benny Nele. Located at 2002 Johnston St., the supplement shop, smoothie bar and café, featuring hot off the press paninis and wraps, plans to open in late May.
This year’s Cool Town issue is all about people who are not native to South Louisiana but made a conscious decision to be here, to be among us, to participate in our culture and contribute to it.
A shelved ordinance transferring $200,000 from a northside drainage project to a south Lafayette development may not break any laws, but it stinks to high heaven.
An effort to restore a shuttered dancehall and document other vacant or razed honky-tonks could serve as a model for saving an endangered species of entertainment.
Lafayette’s gene pool has been host to a long line of eccentric characters who have blurred the lines between crazy, genius, disturbed and curiously entertaining.
