Largest mailbox in Louisiana.

Largest Mailbox in Louisiana

On our way to New Orleans and we stopped at the largest mailbox!

[Sherrie Moore, 07/31/2013]

Built as a stunt for the reality TV series "Bayou Billionaires," but the mailbox is sturdy enough to outlast the show. At 19 ft. tall it beats the 14 1/2 ft. tall mailbox in Newellton, LA, built by a family not on a reality show.
