I'm the Don Dadda

Okay, so we went a little hard this past weekend. I know I am broke as hell. But a baller on a budget is always resilient. Nothing too much going on this weekend except for the Caribbean Festival in Union Park. (Details below) We will likely hit that up Saturday evening. The Chicago Classic is also happening so beware of those crazy Louisiana folk coming thru representing Southern University. If the weather holds we will tailgate after the game then head to the Caribbean Festival. So as always: text: "Im Down" to 9728979985, if you are!

Cheers!
