A Wednesday Tradition

“To know nothing of what happened before you were born, is to forever remain a child.” – Cicero

Before there was Lafitte’s Plunge, Okwata, or The Foundry; there was The Birdcage: F3NOLA’s original Wednesday beatdown.  YHC loves a good tradition!  It’s always good to go back to the basics every once in a while.  Don’t get me wrong, change and innovation are great and necessary, but it is tradition and history that forms your values and perspectives.

Fourteen men of NOLA decided to take their DRP in Audubon Park, and YHC was excited to start… but first…
