by Robert A. Baade, Victor A. Matheson
International Journal of Sport Management and Marketing (IJSMM), Vol. 2, No. 5/6, 2007

Abstract: Hurricane Katrina devastated the city of New Orleans in late August 2005, and debates are now underway across the country concerning strategies for reconstructing the city. Both of New Orleans's professional sports teams, the National Football League Saints and the National Basketball Association Hornets, left the city in the wake of the storm, and the question of what the city should provide in the way of financial accommodation to encourage them to return should be considered in devising a reconstruction plan.
