re: Istrouma Brewing closing the farm location, moving to Baton Rouge

They are probably losing a ton of customers who went for the farm, openness, etc that no other brewery really offers

Sucks as it was a fantastic location to go and hang out on a nice day with the dogs. Not telling where they are moving but losing the whole vibe will really suck. The beer had gotten better but if they become a run of the mill brewery instead of tapping into the Bayou Teche model they won't survive. Place was always packed on Saturday and Sundays.

Please tell me À la Bécasse still exists, it was near the city city in a back alley. Quaint little beer hall who brewed their own beer that you couldn't find anywhere else.

I guess my initial statement about knee locking was wrong; it pops at points (usually once a day),, but I've never had a situation where it completely locked up and I couldn't move. It's mainly turning or twisting that impacts me.

According to the orthopedic at my age, even with surgery I won't be able to be as active as I was before. He said essentially any high impact activity will be off limits.

No locking, it is turning at night and then during the day if I need to make a quick turn or anything and I'm not thinking. Overall during the day it doesn't impact me unless I need to make a quick movement, have to run, or jump towards something

Torn Meniscus Question

Posted by Falco on 11/15/25 at 7:14 pm

Soni has been diagnosed with a torn meniscus and is over 40. The doctor has said surgery is an option, or just dealing with it. For those who have had this before, how did you handle it?

Every day there is some pain, but it's pretty tolerable, but sometimes at night I'll turn and the pain in my knee will wake me up. I can walk just fine, but I cannot run or jump without pain or my knee locking.

Surgery, according to the doctor, will remove my meniscus, but I won't be 100% again and be able to join a flag football league or softball league again.

So I'm debating even having the surgery since no matter what, my way of life is impacted negatively.

I do believe it is closed which sucks as they've had some fairly big names play here

Cal has 23 games at DH
Cal has been worse defensively this year than in the past.

The Yankees record without Judge is 11 games under .500 over the past two years and 4 games under .500 this year.

Before a game you can buy a "game used balls" so you will pay $50 and after the 5th inning you head back and it is a ball that was in play during the first 5 innings. They put a QR code and MLB hologram for authentication purposes so you know the inning and what the ball was.

I have a Judge double and a Wells strikeout ball currently

I've never been searched but I've walked through the metal detector thing after taking everything out of my pocket. So if you do make sure it is 100% plastic and well hidden.

Before the game
Bleacher Bar
Dugout
Stan's
Billy's

If you want to sit with Bleacher Creatures then section 203.

When I go in section 105/106 only for home run balls.

You can visit Monument Park an hour before the game and 30 minutes after (anytime during) with a ticket.
