Freaknik!

The 90s up to the Olympics and pre gentrification were some of the best times. However as a native I would not trade it for any other southern state. Now it's superficial and tons of transplants. The hookah and grass walls are a bit much....

Define “old”

Well I’m pretty young so I didn’t get to experience the glory days of the 90s (which I’ve heard is mosts favorite)

But personally I started to notice a shift post Katrina because we had a lot of transplants but really anything pre covid ( Too many NY/Cali transplants, No more clubbing till the day time, I miss 24hr krogers, and more than anything I miss only having to worry about traffic to the city from 7am-9am and leaving the city after 5)
