I myself do not watch the reality pawn shows, they are just too bogus , and allso knowing the owner of top dollar pawn , well it just feeds his ego even more. something you may find interesting acadians are spread all over the gulf coast from alabama to texas and mardi gras began in mobile ala, not new orleans la. port arthur texas as well as galveston texas hold very large mardi gras celebrations each year as well. part of my life i spent on the texas gulf coast and i tell you there are many cajun or of french desent along the coast from port arthur, sabine pass, boliver penisula ,galveston , free port to parde island , you will find as many acadians as you will in southern louisiana, in texas more refered to as creole. one reason texas is refered to as a whole nother country/lol. maybe because we once were , but i digress, Padre
