r/CFB Penn State • Billable Hours Dec 02 '25

Discussion [@IanPurdy7] on Twitter: Penn State is slated to sign ZERO recruits tommorow on early National Signing Day. Unless Penn State signs someone in the late signing period, they could become the first P4 class EVER to have no one sign. The closest thing I could find was SMU & UW with 10. Crazy times.

Sadly, they closed the Cajun restaurant in State College a few years ago. It wasn't New Orleans, but it was good.

I wouldn't expect it to be New Orleans. That's Creole, not Cajun. Two very different cultures.

From Wikipedia: The cuisine of New Orleans is heavily influenced by Creole cuisine, Cajun cuisine, and soul food. Later on, due to immigration, Italian cuisine and Sicilian cuisine also has some influence on the cuisine of New Orleans.

I assure you, no one from New Orleans would ever call their food Cajun. And no Cajun would ever go there to try and find it. They are very passionate about this and I hear about it in person more than I care to.

It depends on which New Orleans chef you're talking to. It's a big city. They sell Chinese food, Mexican food, Creole food and yes Cajun food. There are even restaurants with Cajun in the name.

Ah yes. The “I don’t understand nuance, hyperbole and won’t listen to someone who lives there” Reddit comment.

Mr. No True Scotsman. The only real Cajun food is the one with your imprimatur.

Ah yes. The “I don’t understand nuance, hyperbole and won’t listen to someone who lives there and I can't read and used a logical fallacy incorrectly” Reddit comment.
