Yahhh!!!! Sounds good to me! I didn't know they still allowed it any where in the good old U.S. of A.! Wouldn't that fall under cruelty to animals?

I think Louisiana is the only state left where it is legal. However, I believe that I read an article last week that said there was a move to ban it there also. Maybe BayouChica can give us an update.

Hey yall, I think I read in the paper a few days ago our Gov. Blanco is pushing that ban... I don't remember when they're gonna vote on it. I hope it goes thru.

I'm not positive but I think Hawaii still have cock fights.

While traveling around there, I saw a whole lot of roos shackled to little huts....up to about 20 or so in a yard. Didn't see them advertised though....

...otherwise, what other reason are they hobbled to a short lead...

Well it's not legal here in Arkansas either, but there are still people who have roosters staked out everywhere.
