Everybody likes Mike, especially since he's the official mascot for Louisiana State University. Hundreds of fans and nature lovers alike flock to see Mike in his natural habitat at the LSU Tiger Cage; visiting Mike has become one of the city's favorite attractions. Originally, Mike's habitat was a mere 2,000 square feet and very limited for an animal (and mascot) of his stature. His home has now been expanded to include an impressive 15,000 square feet and he now resides in what is considered to be an amazing recreation of a tiger's natural habitat. Also, the lair features plenty of oak trees and an Italianate tower that echoes the architecture of the LSU campus.

If discovering talent before everybody else does is your thing, then you should make a habit of regularly checking out what's happening at the Claude L. Shaver Theatre and Dramatic Arts Building. The majority of the actors, actresses and crew are LSU students, and they bring together their talents on several productions throughout the year. The comfortably intimate entertainment venue holds 445 people, so make sure you get your tickets early for the next scheduled performance.

It doesn't matter if you're in from out of town or live in Baton Rouge with your sweetheart, a nice getaway is only as far away as the Stockade Bed and Breakfast. The charming ambiance and scenic location make it the perfect destination. If your respective schedules make it difficult for the two of you to coordinate a vacation, or if your budget requires you two to take a "stay-cation" this year, a night or two at the Stockade Bed and Breakfast is the perfect romantic detour.
