BIG NEW ACADEMY SPORTS

[TBEAR]

Some of you might already have known but I just found out Academy Sports is moving out of their location on Johnston st and are currently building their largest store ever in the nation across from Target on Ambassdor Caffery near Kaliste Saloom. Next to academy Lafayette is going to have another new department store named Kohls a nationwide chain thats been around for years in other states, we get the first one in this state.

I wonder why Chris Williams couldnt get these two big stores built on the northside, you think the I-10 service roads would have helped to bring those stores to the northside, NOT!!!

A few of my friends from the northside aint happy academy moving from a central location now they get to fight southside traffic to buy a fishing pole.

I told them to bring their lunch ;D

Now they should have alot of everything if its going to be their biggest

Should be a big plus for the traffic on K Saloom and Ambassador as well. Need some overpasses !!

I hadn't heard about the new Academy store. That Ambassador/Kaliste Saloom corner is prime real estate. I wonder how much they'd charge me to open up a boudin stand on the sidewalk?
