It's extremely easy to get a cab anywhere you want to go, and cheap as well. There's a horseracing track just North of Bossier that's pretty fun to go to on Sundays. Also, if he's into it, Larry Flynts strip club is awesome, or so I've been told. Also don't go to Josh's if you're white. I've also heard it's full of Cowboys fans, so that'll suck.
The roads downtown kinda suck but all and all a pretty fun town to spend the weekend in. Not sure about living there though.
