Mardi Gras on Ice: Remembering the Louisiana Ice Gators
Manage episode 398361427 series 2862894
During the 1990's, a sports phenomenon took hold in South Louisiana that was impressive yet unexpected.
In the part of the country where football is king and the other sports are fighting for relevance, the sport of hockey fired the imaginations of passionate sports fans in the heart of Cajun Country.
Host and native of South Louisiana Dana Auguster is joined in this episode by longtime friend and six year ticket holder of the Louisiana Ice Gators Shane DeRouen. They will remember and reminisce about time hockey and not football, was the most popular sport in an area that was not known for pucks.
Later in the show we will send a shout out to former hall of fame head coach of the then San Diego Chargers, Don Coryell.
The very day that he was hired, Sept 25, 1978 was both the best day in the sports history of San Diego California but also the darkest day that city's history.
That and more on this episode of the Historically Speaking Sports Podcast, a member of the Sports History Network.
