Pronounced Lon yop. . Cajun for “a little sumthin extra.” In a New Orleans Restaurant you might get an extra shrimp, I.e., lagniappe.

I saw Norte Dame play USC at USC IN 1974. Anthony Davis ran wild. Then we saw the 1975 Rose Bowl USC beat Ohio State 18-17. $12.00 tickets, free “automobile” parking. Still got the tickets.
