In case anyone was wondering what my mother's up to tonight, she and Chuck will be at this game in Shreveport.
Given the date, the location, and the teams involved, the commentators will likely reference Katrina frequently. If they are going to insist on doing that, here's hoping they also talk about the impact of Rita too. It came much closer to Shreveport than Katrina did, and was a stronger (though thankfully not deadlier) storm. Yep, Louisiana got hit by the two strongest Gulf of Mexico storms on record within a period of only 3 weeks. 2005 was not a good year for the Sportsmen's Paradise.
