This veteran staged his first play in the middle of a war. Now he’s performing it again.

As a boy growing up on a farm in Duck Hill, Mississippi, Dominique McClellan wrote stories and poetry to entertain himself. After spending some time in the Army, McClellan took a creative-writing class in community college. He wrote and produced his first full-length play, “The Wedding Party,” in 2008 during a tour in Iraq. This Saturday, Nov. 14, McClellan is bringing the play back — this time to New Orleans.

This Louisiana Entertainment Park Has Go-Karts That Reach 40 MPH

Go-karts that top out around 40 mph are waiting in Louisiana. That is real speed for a park with a track, mini golf, and an arcade. I like how this spot mixes racing with games for every age. I believe a day here could fit a family, a group of friends, or a birthday crew.

Crazy Ending: Jackson State Won Against Tulane After Tulane Called A Timeout They Didn't Have In A Tie Game With 1 Second Left

I stand firm on the fact that one play never loses you the game in basketball. Throughout the 40 mins on the hardwood, there are plays, may plays - defensive breakdowns, bad shots, miscommunications, stupid fouls, turnovers etc that you wish you could take back, and when added up all make the difference in. a game, but none individually. So this bonehead play of calling a timeout when you don't have one is for sure the moment that stands out the most and everyone remembers because it's the one that goes viral - but no one will mention the 17 turnovers that go with it or the 9 missed free throws throughout the contest. It's how it goes.
