Let me just start with Geaux Tigers...because, well, that is all we know in Louisiana! It is the home of Tiger football, Cajun cuisine, and the overuse of the word y'all and I could not love it more. Here are a few reasons you know you are from The Boot!
1. You could peel crawfish in your sleep
We basically learn how to peel crawfish tails before we can even walk...the true LA way.
2. The smallest amount of snow constitutes no for school for days
Oh what is that? A small snow flurry...yep let's cancel school for two days.
3. Tony Chachere's can be added to anything
Breakfast, lunch, and dinner...Tony's always brings your meal to the next level.
4.Tiger football is a lifestyle
Bama who? Bleeding purple and gold is a must as well as Saturdays spent in Death Valley!
5.You've gotten used to 100 percent humidity
Don't even try fixing your hair because the humidity will ruin it in within 10 seconds of walking outside.
6. King Cake is its own food group in February
...and if you find the baby you are the real MVP.
7. Cowboy boots are life
Really they are the only footwear you need while living in The Boot, they are appropriate for all occasions.
8. You know how to pronounce all the parishes...correctly
You impress everyone with your fast vocabulary of all the crazy sounds Parishes we have, like "Natchitoches"...yeah you know how to say it!
9. You've most likely seen every episode of Duck Dynasty
You've repeatedly let this family grace your TV screen and most likely have taken a picture at their Warehouse in Monroe.
10. And you constantly asked if you live in a swamp or bayou
No...not the entire state is a swamp, and no, I do not have an alligator in my backyard!
