Center Court of the Superdome while Anthony Davis Shoots for 3


As you probably might have heard the Final Four is going on this weekend, and it has been a relatively uneventful tournament this season, with only a handful of big upsets and no seed lower than 4 in the Final Four. Yet despite that, it has still been a good year. Living in Baton Rouge it is exciting to know that there is an event this big going on in relatively close proximity to you. The best part is all the other hoopla that goes along with these big events. Over the course of the weekend they have held free concerts in the New Orleans area. Which I guess is cool if you want to see a bunch people who haven't been relevant for 20 years. Among the C-listers playing this weekend is Jimmy Buffett, that’s even more disturbing than Anthony Davis's uni-brow which I'm pretty sure is visible from space. So while Ohio State solidified that the Superdome is just not a good place to play basketball or football I still hope that this National Championship game coming up on Monday is a lot better than the last championship game that was played there.




In other news LSU held their yearly Groovin on the Grounds concert featuring Ludacris last week which is put on by a group of students who are against drinking, sex and other fun stuff…who are known as losers. The thing that I find the most difficult to comprehend is why in the hell would you get Ludacris to come do a concert for an anti-fun group of people especially when his songs are full of drug and sex references - it just seems a little contradictory. They seriously started the concert off by talking about other things you could do instead of drinking and doing drugs and having sex (to a crowd of drunk booing students) and then Ludacris came out. With all that said, it was still the best free hour long concert on the LSU Parade grounds that I have ever been to even though Luda wasn't allowed to cuss or make drug references, which to be honest is like telling a fish not swim or a peacock not to fly. This concert did at least prove one thing, no matter how successful you were in the late 90’s and early 2000’s at some point you will need more money, and then you will be willing to perform a free concert for an hour at a college for $85,000 dollars and not even be able to cuss (which to be honest isn't bad money, it just seems kind of desperate and sell-outish).

  1. I thought about the Luda section of this after I noticed LL Cool J on another Awards Show. Seriously, why is he on every single awards show? I know he is cool but it is getting out of hand.
