OK.... I just found out what LOL means. What the heck is 337?

Uhhhh.....the area code

[covcaj]

Uhhhh.....the area code

Thanks... I don't live in Louisiana anymore and did not realize the area code had changed.

[CajunFun]

Uhhhh.....the area code

Sorry to be a wet blanket, but 337 is only 1/5th of Louisiana, and only 13 of the 22 Acadiana parishes...

Its the antithesis of "LOUISIANA"

It means "Know Your Place" and is closely related to "Our Town, Our Team"

Uh, as far as I know, the Lafayette area code was 337 back when I was at U(S)L in the early '80's.

It was 318 prior to 1999

Baton Rouge was 504 prior to 1998

I would have also thought both were changed earlier than those dates but Google says different

Not that I remember when I was in school there. It was 337, I'm sure.
