Only in Louisiana

David Crain, KJA Creative Director

We’ve all heard the expression “raining cats and dogs”.

But apparently there’s a little-known phenomenon in the deep south that can be summed up in only 2 words — “snowin’ gators!”

Oh sure, it’s quite rare – as is snow of any kind in Louisiana, but this photo is proof that the Cajun folk legend really is true.

For those who ventured out seeking a relief from cabin fever, they just might have caught a glimpse of this guy — right here in the heart of Central Louisiana (Alexandria). He was standing guard in front a house near the Hill Street and Chester Street intersection. The second photo shows his more traditional cousin just inches away.

Kudos to the ‘artist’ that made this happen. Simply amazing!
Probably yet another person who claims to “not have a shred of creativity in their bones.”

I’D BEG TO DIFFER!

    Hi there,
    Robin C. just sent me this blog site. My son Parker Andries, age 10, made the snowgator. He was so excited when he was finished. Thank you so much for the adorable article. Parker is so excited.

    Thank you,
    Katy Andries
