THE ADVOCATE GOT IT WRONG, TED HICKS, BATON ROUGE’S BLUE COLLAR MILLIONAIRE ISN’T DEAD
In December 2015 an article in The Advocate Newspaper in Baton Rouge, La. reported Ted Hicks as being deceased:
“In 2004, now deceased developer, Ted Hicks offered to donate 150 acres on I-12 and O’Neal Lane to BREC if BREC wanted to relocate the Baton Rouge Zoo.” DEAD—Not. Long-time friend Sheriff Sid Gautreaux sent him a text “Ted, is it hot or cold.”
There are several highly successful people in Baton Rouge but few of them are “blue collar.” Ted Hicks is admittedly blue collar and his story is inspirational and encouraging to children born into poverty. The Rouge Collection sat down with Ted Hicks after finding out he was indeed still alive for an interview.
