Geschiedenis van het Breaux Bridge Crawfish Festival
Het wereldberoemde Crawfish Festival begon in 1960 als een spin-off van de Breaux Bridge Centennial Celebration. De wetgevende macht van Louisiana had Breaux Bridge net in 1959 uitgeroepen tot “Hoofdstad van de rivierkreeft”. Het festival is nu in het hele land en zelfs in de hele wereld bekend. Elk jaar in mei stromen duizenden hongerige mensen naar Breaux Bridge om deel te nemen aan de festiviteiten.
