The U.S.S. Zydecoldsmobile
“After driving a small car for years, my friends were impressed when I inherited my parents’ old ’82 Oldsmobile 98 – 'It’s as big as a boat!' We’d pile in and run the roads to dance halls and zydeco clubs in places like Opelousas, Lawtell, Frilot Cove and Dog Hill. Once, at the end of a long night, I was digging for my keys and almost got into the wrong car. When I stepped back out onto the road, I could see a whole fleet of zydecoldsmobiles lined up and parked along Highway 90. A car that size won’t stretch your gas mileage, but at least you can dance on the trunk.”
