Shreveport

Pros: multi faceted, southern hospitality, good simple folk
Cons: Cons and Shreveport Don't Mix

I lived in Shreveport for years 6-16, and it is certainly one of the most interesting places in the United States. But not because of normal reasons. It is because there are so many facets to visiting the Port City. There is something in Shreveport for...

There's no gambling in Shreveport! Period! There's no gambling anywhere in Louisiana for that matter. It was outlawed years ago along with prostitution. It is illegal and expressly prohibited by the state constitution. Happily for our economy though,...
