pothole

In a classic example of Louisiana ingenuity, a group of locals transformed a pothole into a spontaneous celebration of life.

A man planted a banana tree in a pothole to warn drivers of the road hazard. Now, will the city get the message?

The national average of total roadway that is below acceptable standards (crappy and potholey) is 3%. While Louisiana is clocking a smooth 7%, it still isn't the worst.
