We have every, single paper copy of our newspaper that's ever printed!

So we have decided to go into the archives weekly and give you all a blast from the past.

We will call it "Back in the Day" and we think it will be a cool look at the news from our past.

You will see familiar local names, familiar local businesses (some that may have closed down) and a look into our bayou's history.

So join us today as we go back more than 50 years to the December 8, 1976 issue of The Lafourche Gazette.

Are you new to our Back in the Day Series? Check 'em all out online:
