More About Lafayette, Louisiana
You’ll love the names here. Sports venues include the Cajundome and Cajun Field. The Rajin’ Cajuns and the Bayou Bulls make sense, but the Ice Gators’ name makes me want to scratch my head. Poetic license, I suppose. Boudreaux says, “there’s no ice in Louisiana. It’s hot down here.” And, he's right.
Arts are on display at the Acadian Center for the Arts, the Hillard University Art Museum, and the Alexandre Mouton House Museum. The Louisiana Native Crafts Festival lives on in Lafayette in the Festivals Acadiens. In spring the Festival International promises an enjoyable, free music and arts festival here.
