I'm doing some background work on my character. He's an ex con in a New Orleans campaign I looked up state pen's in Louisianna and found this web article Guts n Glory: angola prison rodeo It's a genral article about the prison and the prison rodeo that they still hold Today (that's a link in case you want to buy tickets to the spring '07 season)

There's a lot of interesting stuff in the article about the prison, history and present day, that doesn't really remind me of the steriotypical ideas I have about prison life. It made me wonder what prison was like for my character.

I'm asking y'all what do you think prison life was like for my character in 2070?

for those who can't open links at work I'm pasting the text of the article in the next three posts (it's fairly long). Please wait until I have all three sections up befor you post your ideas

Thanx

[EDIT] I forgot to credit

the next three posts are an artical
