Are you related to the Bengal Bard? I gave him a ride home from a bar one time. His yard was full of signs with poems on them.
He was old. Tall and thin. Grey. They would put his game poem in the Advocate every week during the season. They were all very corny. He used to hang around Magoo's on Chimes St then at Phil Brady's bar.
Not me or my dad (caca’s Brother) who was the Metairie Poet ... When Greg Dubroc went to LSU, the Metairie Poet penned one that made the Times Picayune Peter Finney and so annoyed the Tulane President that he went crying to LSU President to make my pop stop it ... He didn’t of course

Buddy Holley and the Crickets By Ramah Buddy Holley and his Crickets Just had to see Ramah tickets So they said Ramah’s full of IT $550 tickets gave them rickets Now no noise from the crickets Terrible Terry you are to blame Cuz if there’s one thing u learn Football Wise Guys never burn And their minds are in da game Now we could call that TRUCE Ramah’s giving you free JUICE We’ll see how Hot picks Geaux But the one thing that’s for sure The big headed ego don’t adore A winning road he just can’t hoe So if you got a real strong hunch Share it as you would your lunch Always let ya fellow Tigers profit It’s NICE to share ... Now reread the poem to the Tune of ... Wizard of Oz ... If I only had a brain
