“Nickname” Special
at the International Petroleum Museum
Here on the Cajun Coast, given names
are dropped and nicknames are put on everything from campaign signs to

you visit before 12/31/06, you'll get lagniappe (something
extra) at the International Petroleum Museum in Morgan
City: 2–for–1 admission, with a 4-person minimum, 8-person maximum. The only catch? You've
got to ask for the “nickname
discount” and

only place in the world where the general public can walk aboard
an authentic offshore drilling rig! For
further info on the museum, visit www.rigmuseum.com.
