Who told you no? Or is it a technical issue of some kind? Just asking because I have family in a high corporate position in Piccadilly [nationally, not local].

Spoke with the manager on two occasions and in each one I got a no so fast I couldn't even get a name. He said corporate wouldn't allow it. Maybe "if I know a guy" I dunno

Did the Black guys have a place like the Keg or LYbrary that they hung at??? BTW Doug, my S-IN-L's old roomie played the big White dude in Glory Road and if you want I could call him for you---He was "BIG DADDY"---James Oliver!!!

I am still looking for some white guys. I got a few hits on a casting call I put out last year bit we weren't ready to roll it like we thought we were. So yeah I'm curious about this one you call "big daddy"

Victors in New Bacteria

Check out the Palace Cafe in Opelousas. Still looks like it did in the 60's.

I think Mel's Diner on Johnston still has the great 50's diner look that may be an option. I haven't been in Bisbano's in years but that might also be an option.

----Doug---you can't miss him in the movie---He was the black rimmed guy dancing with the chick at the house party---He wanted to do more roles after the film but ---IS TOO TALL AT 6' 9" OR ABOUT!!! He played at Loyola and before at Brother Martin!!! Johnathan Hernendez was also in it and even Brad Boyd!!!

I know Mr. Jimmy Guidry (owner of Hub City Diner) is a pretty accommodating guy… I obviously can't answer for him and say they will allow you to shoot there, but I'd be surprised if you couldn't work something out… I also 2nd the notion of Palace Cafe in Opelousas. I worked for a short time at the courthouse across the street and stopped there a couple times for lunch and the place kinda creeped me out. Definitely has an old time feel there...

Used to eat regularly at Stansbury's before it became Hub City Diner. Loved their Reuben.

Brad Boyd is our tom Cox, if you look at pics side by side the resemblance is surprising. Brad if your reading this I swear we will shoot one day.
