Sounds like you were just in Baton Rouge on a bad day. If I remember correctly you went to Baton Rouge the Saturday after the 9/23 Titans game. If so, LSU and Tulane were playing in the Superdome in New Orleans that weekend. Half the population of Louisiana was in the Superdome that day. That may be why Baton Rouge seemed like a ghost town when you were there.
Baton Rouge is a drinking town for sure. Especially during football season. The next time you visit us you need to go see a LSU game in Tiger Stadium. I am certain your opinion of Baton Rouge will change if you do. You will be completely blown away by all the partying going on outside the stadium. It's a beautiful site to behold. I hope to see you again either in Baton Rouge or in New Orleans next season.
