Lights Out in Blackham

[Boomer]

I had posted this before about my funniest story of Caoch Ship----Party after a football win at Coach Faulinberry's house ----we put up a lot of points but so did I think Tampa---Don Smith the off coordinator had left the party and Coach Blanco the Def Coordinator asked where he was ---Coach Ship said he had gone to the hospital for an emergency Hernia operation --Blanco is asking all kinda questions about how and why---Coach Ship says he got it trying to hold up the defense---A very ____ed Blanco gabbed our future Governor and left the house--The house was laughing big time---Just another one of the tales of Coach Shipley!!!

You may want to give them a call. They are speaking now on Foote's show saying it's about a sellout. They've sold all 250 tickets, but may be able to fit a few extra.

Just drove by, the place looks packed from the road.

I hope someone can give a full report later tonight.

Like nearly everyone Wednesday night at the Acadiana Center for the Arts, Dean Church was anxious to learn what "Lights Out In Blackham" is all about.

Oh, he knows the story.

The rest of the story

hey fellas it's douglas from "Lights Out in Blackham", i want to say THANK YOU to everyone who made it out to the Shipley Tribute Gala Wednesday night. We worked our tails off to put it together and it meant a lot to us to have some familiar faces in the crowd. This whole undertaking has been filled with triumph and heartbreak and knowing you guys have our backs goes a long way, so for that and many other things i want to say from the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU!

I know. Sorry I couldn't make the Tribute Gala ... I have heard great things about it. This community is finally (thanks to Coach Marlin - and probably Dr. Savoie) reaching out to the Shipley's. This documentary really, really has the potential to open eyes in this country!

Best of luck with it!

NO Doubt ---it is time for a push to get Coach Ship in the Louisiana Hall of Fame in basketball or whatever it is called that he has been omitted from for so long!!!!
