The biggest problem is that it's within walking distance of the Riverwood projects.

Ahh, the Riverwood projects... I had actually forgotten about that little crime-filled pimple of Bossier. I'd live in Kellyside before I'd spend an afternoon there.

Honestly I'd forgotten about it as well until I started thinking WHY there are so many muggings in the Bossier Wal-Mart parking lot, and then it hit me... Riverwood is literally less than a mile away. My friend used to live in Old Greenacres real close to Riverwood when we were in high school, and it was amazing the crap we would see and experience when we'd walk that way. Things you don't normally associate with Bossier, but rather Cedar Grove and The Bottoms.

Even weirder is how many people are believing this hoax and, like sheep, passing it on to someone else.
