Lucian's Football Exploits
In 1966 I was a freshman football
player at Louisiana Tech University. I was a
linebacker. Terry Bradshaw was a second
string quarterback who never started until he
was a Junior. Our football team was to
endure an awful year of one win and nine
losses.
Our opening game, September
24, 1966 was the highest profile game in the
history of La Tech. We were to play the
University of Alabama at Legion Field in
Birmingham Alabama. This was the opening
game for Alabama.

Joke of the Day |

Boudreaux and Fontenot are walking down a
street in Houston when they see a sign on a
store that reads, "Suits $5.00 each, shirts
$2.00 each, trousers $2.50 per
pair."
Boudreaux says to his pal,
"Look here! We could buy a whole gob of
these, take 'em back to Abbeville, sell 'em
to our friends, and make a fortune. Now when
we go in there you be quiet, okay? Just let
me do the talkin' 'cause if they hear your
accent, they might think we're ignorant, and
try to cheat us. Now, I'll talk in a slow
Texas drawl so's they don't
know."
They go in and Boudreaux says
with his best fake Texas accent, "I'll take
50 of them suits at $5.00 each, 100 of them
there shirts at $2.00 each, and 50 pairs of
them there trousers at $2.50 each. I'll back
up my pickup and ...."
The owner of
the shop interrupts, "Ya'll are from
Louisiana, ain't you?"
"Well...yeah,"
says a surprised Boudreaux. "How come you
know dat!"
"Because this is a
dry-cleaners."
