Acadiana Native Explains Cajun Christmas To Oklahomans
Ask anyone from Acadiana and they'll tell you that Christmas celebrations here are more vibrant and more entertaining than others elsewhere in the United States. An old friend of ours summed up why Louisiana Christmases are better than celebrations elsewhere.
Iberia Parish native Travis Guillory is a morning news anchor at KJRH-TV in Tulsa, Oklahoma. You probably remember Travis from his time as a reporter at KATC. If you don't, here's a brief refresher.
This Christmas, Travis used his Twitter page to explain how Christmas celebrations in Acadiana can be funny, puzzling, entertaining, and cringeworthy all at the same time. It's a tweet that, for a lot of you, probably hits too close to home.
Let's be honest: Most small-town conversations involved someone's mama's brother's wife's cousin's nephew that we've never met. This tweet sums up not just Christmas events, but practically any family reunion in South Louisiana.
