Today is the 30th anniversary of 97.3 The Dawg. 🐾What a fun ride it's been, and it's all because of you, the wonderful people of Acadiana. 🫶 We can't put into words how thankful we are for each and every one of you for being a part of who we are and what we do each and every day on the air. Thank you for playing our games, supporting the local businesses that advertise with us, putting smiles on our faces daily, and, most importantly, helping us out when we ask you to support community charities, non-profits, and organizations like St. Jude. ☺️

And, a huge shoutout to Bruce Mikells, who also celebrates 30 years on air here at 97.3 The Dawg! 👏 He's one of the most talented broadcasters that Acadiana has ever seen (or rather, heard). In addition to his fantastic work on-air, he also leads the team behind the scenes and is one of the most caring and selfless guys you will ever meet. Please join us in congratulating him on this career milestone. ❤️
