Would have figured it was 'Heckuva Job Brownie's' revenge.


Does anyone think this will affect New Orleans' chances for future bowls or other high profile events?
In my defense, I was left unsupervised.

It was fortunate that the entire stadium didn't go dark. Could have been panic as people freaked out thinking terrorist attack. I was surprised that there seemed to be so few emergency lights in the darkened half of the stadium. Maybe emergency lights kick on with total darkness, and there was sufficient light?

I would think the PA system should be on an independent power source. No lights, no PA, people panic, no way to communicate to everyone?

Generators kicked on, as they were supposed to and I think what you saw lit was the emergency lights.

Reset time on the lights (when full electric was restored)was 10-15 minutes, so I'm not sure how long they were on generator.
