**DANCE HALL HISTORY —  Grandma Tee Ma called her place “A Dance Hall” because it you could only drink beer in the club, no hard liquor was allowed.  If you wanted hard liquor there was a small shack in the back where you could purchase and drink it outside.  She said that was the difference between a dance hall and a club. Tee Ma later added the word club to the name in the 1970’s.  Clifton Chenier played there many years for the Christmas dance.
