It takes a special type of person to be a life-long fan of the Ragin’ Cajuns football team and that would be me.  I bleed Vermilion Red.  I rushed the field when we beat A&M back in 1995.  I facepalmed in agony as, yet again, we failed to score a touchdown in a game against LSU.  I expect the worst yet, every game, I hope for the best.  Maybe this will be the year that we get to a bowl.  Maybe this will be the year that we beat a BCS team and win the following week against a weaker opponent.

It’s different for you LSU fans, isn’t it?  You expect national championships.   You expect to gut the team that Nick Saban is coaching and hang their intestines from the crossbars.  You talk about the great plays all week long and moan on Monday like no other fans when the Tigers perform below your sky-high expectations.  Watching the Saints play this past year let me live the life and expectations of an LSU fan for a few months... it was a euphoric experience.

While we might cheer at the demise of “the other team” in the state we can agree on one thing: Football is King in South Louisiana.  We recognize that and want to give you something special to bring to your tailgating party: Gouda Beer Bread is back!!!

Saturdays this Fall we’ll be making our Gouda Beer Bread with Louisiana Beer.  Whether you’re driving across the Basin or across town to cheer for your team, we’ve got the item that’ll be the talk of tailgating!
